Virtual patrol
Marco Ricciardi Toronto police
Use of foursquare and twitter to show where people are working and what they are doing. Deputy Chief notices. Why does he do it, how and payoff for using SM Using foursquare to show where he is.
Can check in covertly or covertly.Let's people know what he is doing so they can communicate with him. Sometimes "leaves" or "stays" covertly
Outlines how he is travelling eg on cycle
A good example of someone who is taking a lead and using Twitter and 4Sq at the operational practical level.

@TPS_Marco
Outlines arrests and results and explains why he is still at work. Provides tips for community. Includes a day in the life as cop. Includes pics and takes feedback or information on subway.
Very professional example of the use of social media on the streets.
This is my blog. It represents my own views and I hope to keep it interesting and of some use. If its not then let me know. My site has gone purple out of respect for Alice Pyne. Our hero and her heroic family
