Glacier-Park

Recently, I noticed that Glacier National Park had started putting out updates on Twitter. I love that park, live a few hours south of it in Missoula, and have been planning on going up there to snowshoe. So, naturally I became excited that there was a point of contact there that I could ask advice. I shot out a couple tweets asking where we could go and received no answer, much to my dissapointment. So I posted out this tweet:

Am disappointed that the updates coming from Glacier Park (@glaciernps) don't seem to have a human listening on the other end :(

About an hour after that, this message came in through my site's contact form:

David Restivo sent a message using the contact form at http://evanlovely.com/contact.

Hi, Evan.

I saw your Tweet regarding our participation in communication on Twitter. I didn't want you to think that nobody was listening in on the other end. I had seen your posts and questions regarding snowshoe and ski recommendations, so we tweeted where people could find that informaiton on our Web site. At this point, the park has decided to use Twitter as a one-way communicaiton tool only. Our social networking media page on our Web site better explains how we use each tool. http://www.nps.gov/glac/photosmultimedia/webcams.htm
