We have set automated messages to tweet each hour as the price for electricity changes. Use the button located on the sidebar to get to our new Twitter page. This will provide another way to get the information you need whenever you need it.
We also want to encourage all of our participants to use this new platform to discover new and innovative ways to use this service to its full potential.
Here is a little positive encouragement on the endless possibilities:

Some interesting ways to get started on your own can be found here with their selection of widgets and other apps for your desktop, website, or your iphone/itouch. You can even use their API (Application Programming Interface) to create your own.

I like the concept but quickly got tired of text messages every hour...in addition to ones that looked jumbled with weird characters popping up throughout. How about a daily email sent at midnight for the following day??
Yeah we had some issue with character length at first. We'll be tweaking what we have, and trying to figure some new things out. I like your daily email idea. We're going to meet to discuss some of our options and how we can make improvements this week. I'll have an update on the blog when we make changes. Thanks.
Thanks Matt - and sorry for posting Anonymous initially...was having issues with my password! I really enjoy going to the PSP site & blog every day. Great information, and I like the functional improvements by incorporating more 'new media' options (e.g., Twitter, Facebook group). My wife and I have been active (and having fun) with PSP since February and are already seeing significant improvements in energy savings/cost reduction...with proactive change efforts (e.g., CFL's, usage behavior), of course, in addition to moving to market pricing.
Thanks again!
