Do we really need Twitter for that - we can already do that here. It only means more places to look for things.

Yes I'd agree.

There are many ways now for people to post interesting sightings / photos on location direct to the board, rather than waiting until they get home.

Just my 2 cents worth

Twitter could b a useful tool, Example
ken for example wrote:Busaustralia is currently down. we are working on this......
That way, you see that "oh the admins are aware of this" and less posts on the forum

Easy.

It would indeed be very useful - for those who use Twitter.

ON TWITTER HUH?

IF the board goes down THEN an admin can post that the site is down.

Just because i used the QUOTE function DOES NOT mean that i meant on the board.

His was referring to the fact how you said if the board was down you'd post on twitter instead of ATDB.

And he was pointing out if the board was down, you wouldn't be able to post on it on here anyway, so posting on twitter when board is down, wouldn't mean an less posts here.
