  • Sign up for CKMedia's LIVE On-site News Alerts from every Formula Drift event in 2009

    CKMedia Associates, producers of The DriftZone, the Official Video Podcast of Formula Drift since 2006, The LIve Blog, the most authoritative coverage and The Inside Drift, the world's first call-in Internet radio talk show dedicated entirely to the professional drift scene, will begin its ground-breaking onsite instant news service, Track Tweets, on www.twitter.com, beginning with Round 1 of the 2009 Formula Drift professional drift champisonship series, and from every event on the tour.
    Building on it's authoritative LIVE textual news service, The Live Blog, that was viewed over a million times by drift fans in 2007 and 2008, Track Tweets, is a short message service (SMS) messaging service utilizing the fastest growing social network in the world today, www.twitter.com.
    CKMedia staff, already onsite producing The DriftZone, and other drift programming come across stories throughout the two day events and these stories will be sent out instantly to Track Tweets followers in short burst messages, or "tweets".
    In addition to reaching computers, Track Tweets can reach any text enabled cell phone, PDA, or portable digital media device that can connect to the Internet by wifi or network connection. So no matter where you may be, you're just a "tweet" away from all the action, drama, and back stories that develop at every Formula Drift event.
    Track Tweets is a free service. All you have to do to get the messages, is to go to www.twitter.com/tracktweets and become a follower of the service. If you are not already a member of twitter.com, joining is free and takes only about a minute.
    "We will be tweeting qualifying, live, and the results of each tandem during the competition," said Gary Keith, executive producer of CKMedia programming. "The true genius of Track Tweets is its brevity, each tweet, with an advertiser's live link must be no more than 140 characters, so it's litterally, 'the facts, the the facts". Plus, these messages are totally portable, so drift fans can be in touch with what's going on at each FD event, no matter where they are, or what they're doing.", added Keith.
    In addition to outgoing news alerts, CKMedia will be introducing talk-back and interactive features, including a "Guess the Winner" contest that will allow its followers unprecedented opportunities to become involved in the event, from anywhere, LIVE!
    "We at CKMedia are committed to programming that takes Formula Drift to the fan base, LIVE, and in addition to our new Inside Drift Internet radio talk show, and Track Tweets, we will have a few more exciting announcements in that regard before the opening round at Long Beach," said Keith.
