Vote for Charlotte Fire Department
My friends and NIOA colleagues Rob Brisley and Mark Basnight have been instrumental in building a social media and public information outreach for the Charlotte Fire Department. Their dedicated efforts are being recognized by peers.
The Charlotte Fire Department has been nominated as a finalist in the Social Media Responder 2009 competition held by PIO Social Media Training. There are other significant finalists mentioned, but I'm placing my vote for Charlotte. The dedication that this department has to its community, the on-going effort to provide up-to-date information, and the ability to use social media to communicate both "good to know" and "must know" information alike, have made this department stand out among others.
You can find more information and vote for any of the finalists at the Social Media Training site. One vote per day is allowed. Please consider voting for Charlotte FD. Follow them on Twitter: @charlotte, view their photos on Flickr, or see their videos on YouTube. They are doing a call-in radio show, as well. Find it on BlogTalk Radio.
