On March 19, Direct Action to Stop the War successfully used Twitter for coordinating protest information. Today, Olympic Torch SF will attempt to pick up where DASW left, and expand the use of twitter into an open-publishing platform for news on the San Francisco Olympic Torch relay and the related protests.

For ongoing text-based coverage, please follow the SFTorch twitter account. You can subscribe to SMS updates by sending a text message to 40404 with the message "follow sftorch." Alternatively, you can also follow the SFTorch feed by visiting http://twitter.com/sftorch - If you have any updates on the Olympic Torch or the related protests please feel free to send us the information by typing "@sftorch " followed by your message using either SMS or the twitter web interface.
