If Astronauts Can Tweet from Space, Surveyors Can Tweet from the Woods

Posted by Jaybird on January 22, 2010 at 12:30pm

I just ran across an article on Mashable about the first astronauts to send a twitter update from outer space and it got me to thinking more about our Field Support Group here on LSU. I've come to the conclusion that If Astronauts Can Tweet from Space, Surveyors Can Tweet from the Woods! If you are interested in becoming part of this experimental group which I have been masterminding, which will enable networked land surveyors to use Twitter and Google Wave to assist one another with real-time tech support issues and troubleshooting from the field, join this group. At the beginning of next week I will be unveiling my proposed method of doing so to the members who have joined and we will put it into action. Have a nice weekend surveyors!
