Twitter is the worst for crisis communications, except for all the others

Ed Schipul has a passion for crisis communications and social media for emergency responders. His company consults on issues like these. His boutique firm, Schipul, employs several folks in Houston, directly in the trail left by Hurricane Ike.

In light of my two recent posts about using Twitter as a crisis communications tool and Twitter's abysmal uptime history and subsequent improvement, I got a charge out of Ed's two recent posts about using Yammer for mobile crisis communications. Turns out Yammer isn't without its flaws either.

I hope we'll hear more from Ed about this after his power comes back on and his life begins to resemble normalcy again.
