Mumbai police get active on networking sites

Mumbai, March 17 -- The Mumbai police, in a unique initiative to understand citizens and connect with the youth, has started a social media laboratory. The lab, which has been started in association with Reliance Foundation and NASSCOM, will see police officers active on social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter and others. A team of 20 specially trained officers will operate the lab.

Police commissioner Dr Satyapal Singh, however, made it very clear that the initiative would not interfere in any manner with the privacy of people active on social networking sites.

"This step is not going to affect people's privacy. Through this medium, we are trying to understand the mindset of people which will help in better policing," Singh said. The initiative has been chalked out seeing the rise in popularity of social networking sites among city youth.

Actor Abhishek Bachchan joined as a guest for the inauguration of the Social Media Lab. Abhishek, who is active on Twitter along with his father, Amitabh Bachchan, said, "The Mumbai police are trying to connect with the masses through this and we should support them. Social networking sites are a platform for people to write their views and the police are not going to interfere with that."

"There are 1.2 crore tweets on Twitter from Mumbai alone. It's not possible for us to follow everybody. But, if we will find objectionable comments on the site then we will inform the cyber cell of the Mumbai police to look into it," Singh said.

The lab will also be keeping tabs on terror groups which at times post their messages on social networking sites. Singh had also started a cyber lab when he was joint commissioner of police, crime in 2003 which was the first such lab in the country.

Daily Times sports editor asked to leave Ricketts Park press box over Twitter dispute

FARMINGTON Rivalry on the field was almost eclipsed by a dispute in the press box at Saturday evening's Farmington Scorpion Invitational Baseball Tournament.

John Livingston, Daily Times sports editor, was asked to leave the press box by Don Lorett, Farmington High School athletic director, over a tweet.

"Overheard in the Ricketts press box: it must be nice for PV softball to beat up 2A and 3A teams.....ill let u take care of the response...," Livingston said in a tweet during the Farmington-Piedra Vista high schoolbaseball game.

Word of the tweet was spread among Farmington's coaching staff, Livingston said, culminating in a text message from Lorett.

"Tweeting about stuff said in our pressbox is unacceptable for me," Lorett said in the message. "I can put (you) next door if need be. Your call."

Livingston, who had been outside interviewing another coach went back into the box to gather his equipment.

"If PV would have said it, I would have tweeted it too," he said.

Livingston did not reenter Farmington High School's press box for the remainder of the tournament.

"Kicked out of the Farmington High press box for tweeting that "overheard',"he said in another tweet. "Then called "real professional' for tweeting it.It's my job."

Livingston said he had been asked to leave press boxes before by school administration in Aztec.
