Global - Hi WST family: We have
some good news. You are about
to get an additional 6000
steelpan music loving brothers
and sisters in an instant from
all over the globe added to your
family. “Following” the
activities of WST just took a
major leap forward.
Over the
past week When Steel Talks (WST)
started to implement the lines
of direct communication among
our
WST Facebook community,
WST Twitter
(300) and our
WST Ning network (6600)
members. Our facebook family
consists of WST Facebook Page
(6000+ members) and
WST Facebook Group (3200+
members). Our WST crew will
still maintain their personal
facebook profiles - with over a
combined 6400 + friends and
associates - for people they
know.
So what does this all
mean? Everyone will be able to
communicate with each other
regardless of which social
network you choose. The WST
family will immediately have
greater access to a larger
global population of music,
educators, performers, officers,
associations and services. All
members will be able to engage
in better dialog and have
greater access to prevalent
steelpan music information and
people not always easily
accessible.
Whatever your preferred choice
of access device, you can connect with
your global WST family via
Blackberry, iPhone or other
choice of smartphone, iPad,
Wi-Fi-connected eReader,
netbook, laptop, desktop,
texting, regular email, Xbox
Live, PS3, specific TVs and
more.
This will have no adverse
effect on the tens of thousands
of WST fans who interact with us
through our
WST RSS news feed and email
WST newsletter. In fact WST
will provide the means for the
texting and email-preferred
groups to interact with rest of
the WST network through our WST
Ning network.
Also, look for our
other family members like the
WST Steelpan Music YouTube
channel to be brought into the
network soon.
If you are
interested, you can monitor the
transition on

Keep in mind that technology is
what it is - so expect hiccups
in access on the odd occasion.
