Social Media in GMP
Kevin HoyGreater Manchester Police
Social media in GMP
GMP24 – Twitter Day“Raise awareness of the diverse and complex role of
policing, explaining how much time officers spend with non-crime matters”
Logistics of 24 hour Tweeting• 24 hours would be broken
down into 3 shifts• 2 teams of 2 would alternate
to update Twitter each shift• Each call would be
numbered and tagged #gmp24
• The feeds would be available directly from our website and intranet
Out-Tweeting Twitter• Too many Tweets
would send us to Twitter jail
• Twitter HQ said it was a global rule and could not be altered
• Solution: set up multiple Twitter accounts, switching between as we were jailed
