According to this the TVP have launched a Twitter page but the link to it states that it does not exist. Have the powers that be pulled the site?  |

Have the powers that be pulled the site? Yes, the link doesn't work but... I just signed up to twitter and searched for 'Thames Valley Police'. You'll get two links. The first MAY be what is referred to. (It 'follows' straight away, whereby the second link just goes into 'pending' status. -------------------- There their, loose loser!

You just need to take the full stop off of the end of the URL.

Seems to be the actions / views of one person rather than the whole of TVP.

This I suspect is unique to Newbury Neighbourhood and selected other departments. Twitter is a blocked site normally so only a few will have access to update it. Hence it will not have the views of all TVP.
It appears to be a quick update page from the horses mouth type thing! |

Anyboday can access twitter, and anyone can set up an account. Therefore it could have the whole of Thames Valley on it. Although it is unlikely.

I see what was being said now. However you cannot access twitter in the office unless you have special permission |

Aaaah - I see. I guess facebook, and ebay etc are all barred to? I have a similar thing at work. Makes life a bit boring but I guess it helps with productivity, certainly does for me!

No new updates for a couple of days now. Methinks those that promoted the project didn't take into account that changes to firewalls etc will be required, assuming social networks are, by default, blocked.

Maybe they're all out on patrol rather than sat around twittering.
