A tweet from inside your Ford

A tweet from inside your Ford

January 14, 2010 in Advertising, Articles, Social Media

Last week Ford revealed their new dashboard “MyFord” at the North American International Auto salon. They got thereselves a pretty valuable PR-moment with the fact that owners of a brand new Ford will be able to tweet from your car using this new “MyFord” dashboard.

“Ford drivers will be able to tweet by using voice-recognition of the car.”

Now I’m wondering if they just used this ‘possibe feature’ to make it a PR worthy story, or if they really offer a specific Twitter functionality. The specs don’t say a single word about a Twitter feature. It just says that the system has a WIFI receiver for internet access.

Nonetheless, a smart way of marketing the product and a feature I would definately want in my car!
