UtahTalks connects Utahns on Twitter-like platform

April 16, 2009 | by Pete Codella, APR

Social Media Club of Salt Lake City members have yet another tool to stay connected.

This one’s just like Twitter, but it’s specifically for Utahns.

It’s called UtahTalks. It’s a microblogging service assembled by Stay N’ Alive Productions (@jesse).

If you really need to know, it runs on the free Laconica microblogging software.

We encourage all SMC of SLC members to register for an account and contribute to the Utah microblogging community on UtahTalks.

    Thanks Pete for the mention! I hope this can become a community effort – if I ever make any money on it my hope is that it pays just for the costs and I’d like to find ways to have the remainder go back to the community in some way. The more help we can get the better!

    Oh, and don’t forget to sign up for the SMCSLC group on UtahTalks!
