Twitter for Family Emergencies

Let me preface this by saying that it may not work on your wireless plan. So how does my family do it? We all have a Verizon Unlimited Text account. My wife, daughters, and I, all follow each other using this. When there is an emergency, one sends out the tweet, and all the rest recieve at the same time. This helps eliminate time in attempting to call people one by one.

Imagine that in the time of a local emergency, one could send out a tweet to the whole family to meet at a certain location, or if something happened at your kids school and they don't have time to call Mom and Dad.

Make Twitter work for you, not just for fun.
