Twitter and the NEC – Part 2

Last month we introduced you to Twitter (click here) and encouraged you to sign up and follow MikeHolt_NEC. This month we would like to discuss the use of Twitter a little more.

As we said last month, we have not figured out all of the uses of Twitter, but here are some possibilities:

• A stream of NEC content, tips and resources
• An update on Code or an important electrical ruling that you should know about
• Instant reports of product safety recalls or product launches
• Links to articles and other resources with a note why its important

There’s definitely a huge move toward using Twitter for business. On July 24, Twitter addressed this growing trend by launching its new site called Twitter 101 which is designed to show how businesses can use their service.  There are countless other websites and articles telling us how to twitter effectively for business.

To receive NEC related ‘tweets’ from me, click on the link https://twitter.com/signup and follow the steps to sign up for a Twitter account, then click on https://twitter.com/mikeholt_NEC and select Follow.

I’ve already started sending out NEC Code rules of violations based on the personal experience of our customers failing inspections. Let me know how you like this Free feature!

If you have an idea on how we can better use this service, please let me know.
