Why Philadelphia police are embracing Twitter

Governing talks with Philadelphia Police Department communications director Karima Zedan about its officers use of Twitter to fight crime.
 
Our driving philosophy has been: Why not try to pave the way and use [Twitter] as a great tool to connect to people and put a face to the men and women who serve in the department. That's really what Twitter allows us to do. We've been on Twitter (@phillypolice) since September of 2009. It's been a great way to respond to people's questions, to give information to highlight programs that the police department is doing [and] to highlight the good works of people.
