Twitter in Tinley Park, the Best Thing Since Tweeter?
If you live in Tinley Park, IL, the S/SW suburbs of Chicago or have ever traveled here to take in some good tunes, you’ll probably remember that our huge music venue was once called New World Music Theater and World Music Theater. However, just before the current mouthful of a sponsorship (First Midwest Bank Amphitheatre), it was called Tweeter Center Chicago.
Now Tinley Park residents may be hearing more about a similar word, Twitter. As Twitter continues to grow in popularity, different organizations are finding it useful as a way to stay connected and keep it’s members happy.
I just read today that Tinley Park has approved itself to begin participating with the Twitter crowd in an attempt to communicate with residents and to attract others to the village.

Besides reaching out to people, I wonder if the village will ensure keeping 2-way communication. Will the Village of Tinley Park take suggestions, complaints, etc.? What do you think about Tinley Park getting involved with Twitter? Is your town already Tweeting? Do you have suggestions for the Tinley Park officials? I hope they get it right and continue doing good work to support Tinley Park businesses and bring greater development to the community. If you have something to say, add a comment below.
Take care,
Emil
