RE: [election-services] Newcastle uses Twitter for election result

["Paul Spencer" <paul.spencer@boynings.co.uk>]



I don't see anything that needs to be added. I am having a frustrating day today. I might just spend some time making an EML to Twitter tool. Post a 510 and it gets parsed and uploaded.

 

Regards

 

Paul

Good point.

 

David W - something else to include in v6?

Threat or opportunity to write an EML to Twitter converter?

 

Twitter is just a channel. A strength of EML is that it is channel independent, so the more channels people use the better - they just generate one 510 and use some stylesheets to convert it for the different channels.

This is a very interesting development and may be a threat to us on the results reporting side?
