EXTRA; FANTASTIC NEWS-- Dennis Smith Launches New Social Media Innovation for Firefighters

I feel it is fantastic we still have Dennis Smith with us, and as busy as ever.. ( due to his work on the pile after Sept 11, somewhat battered but as dynamic and creative as ever) He has come up with yet another great idea, a Social Media Innovation for Firefighters,  Wavepeg, with a launch date of Sept 8 This is a really exciting concept and one that is long overdue ( as was for instance, the FDNY Fire Museum, of which Dennis is the Founding Chairman) Incredible new possibilities here for the world of Fire and Rescue

Dennis Smith Chairman Founder Firehouse Magazine Emergency Scene Magazine        Author Report from Engine Co. 82 The Final Fire Dennis Smith’s Fire Safety Book Glitter and Ash Firehouse History of Firefighting in America The Aran Islands: A Personal Journey Steely Blue The Little Fire Engine That Saved the City Firefighters: Lives in Their Own Words A Song for Mary Report from Ground Zero A Decade of Hope  San Francisco is Burning Board Member Congressional Fire Services Institute IAFC Foundation Chairman, Advisory National Firefighter Near-Miss Reporting System Founding Chairman FDNY Museum    A note from Dennis Smith During the time I was working with Engine Co. 82 in the South Bronx, where we responded to 40 alarms a day, I created Firehouse Magazine and its subsidiary companies – and I also wrote “Report From Engine Co. 82.”  But now I have created something that will exceed the expectations of even those first readers of Firehouse or my books. I have created a new social media company - a great way for firefighters to have real communication directly with firefighters all over the country.  If you learn a lesson, use Wavepeg to share it with your brothers and sisters who are out there with their lives on the line.  Tell them what you know, what you learned, and how to keep themselves safer.  I am writing to you now because I need your help in the same way Firefighters helped me to create firehouse magazine.  It’s simple. Just take a look at my new site, Wavepeg.com.Register and use it. It is completely free. That is the lifelong favor you can do for me. Our firefighters will thank you too, and own the “world” of Fire completely - with free and easy access to each other, all 1½ million of you.  Spread your experience and intelligence to firefighters across the nation, or to those in one specific city. Instruct the probies, help all firefighters go up the ladder – to a rescue or to career advancement. Make everyone in the fire service just a little more savvy. It is what you say that counts. Help me make the world of fire something all firefighters will check out every day. I am asking as a brother who needs you. We have 90 worlds: your profession and all of your interests included. Go to the Fire page - save the baseball and football pages for later - and see how we can together create a communications revolution among firefighters. Your skills and experience, and your company’s, can now be recorded for everyone, to help inspire the courage of tomorrow. It costs only the good grace of helping a brother - an assist in presenting something entirely new into our culture. It will be much appreciated in all firehouses, and I thank you endlessly for your help. Just go to www.wavepeg.com, and take 5 seconds to sign in.
