Schedulefly Launches Twitter Integration

Schedulefly users can now post updates to their Twitter account while checking their work schedule, posting messages or trading shifts. More and more people are using Schedulefly on a daily basis to connect with their co-workers for various reasons. We thought that the Twitter question “what are you doing?” was a good question to ask Schedulefly users while they are logged in – since they are often taking some action or learning something that directly or indirectly affects those around them….

A couple of examples:

1. You’re Requesting Time Off: Drop a tweet to let Mom, Dad, big brother and little sister know that you just asked off for the family beach vacation – WELL in advance. They can now send the deposit and start planning!

2. You’re Picking up a Shift: It’s Friday morning and you just picked up a Friday night shift. Drop a tweet to your friends to let them know you’ll be arriving fashionably late to the party that night….but with cash in your pocket!

3. You’re Reading a Message on the Company Message Board: You just read a message from your manager that tomorrow night is half price appetizers and $2 Margaritas – Spread the Word! Drop a quick tweet to let your crew know….your manager will thank you.

We’ve also added the twitter timeline of a user to their Schedulefly profile – along side their contact information and upcoming work schedule.

Twitter is fun and certainly useful. It definitely adds some fun and usefulness to online employee scheduling at Schedulefly. Thanks Twitter – for a great API!

Cheers
