The vice president of communications for this cellphone app called NextDoor. We will explain real briefly for our viewers who are not familiar with the NextDoor app, how does that work and what www Nextdoor com com join.
What is www Nextdoor com join
NextDoor is many people who use web site, like Facebook to connect with their friends and Linkedin for their professional pursuits, maybe Twitter to follow people they're interested in. NextDoor is a site that helps you connect with your neighbors.
Once you sign up for NextDoor you are inserted into your neighborhood, and it allows you to have sort of what the conversations that used to happen more often than they do today over the clothesline or the fence, it allows you to have those through the power of an app in your pocket.
I should also note by the way it works for web if you don't choose to download the app you can just use it as an internet site, but a lot of people use it as an application on their smartphone, and they can take their neighborhood with them in their pocket wherever they go.
Posting any information on NextDoor
I want to explain something for our viewers and let them know, I live on the south side of College Station, and there are so many people to use this thing.
I got on this about a year ago and there are so many neighbors of mine there in College who are on this and it's almost like a virtual bulletin board, and you see people posting things like I've lost my cat or dog or who's got a good recommendation for a plumber, but getting more specific to like National Night Out and how it's used for crime prevention and letting folks know we've had a burglary NextDoor did.
When NextDoor was developed and you created this, did you think it was going to be as big as it is now? What we hoped it would be, and we think that neighboring is an intrinsic thing that people like to do.
The important use case is
That's why we have the bra police department in the College police department as partners of ours, and they post information about updates related to emergencies or preparation for. It could be anything from inclement weather in the neighborhood onto the platform as a value to the neighborhood.
But these are more effective than law enforcement updates, neighbors are talking to each other, so someone can say there's been a rash of car break-ins lately, watch out be sure and put your car in the garage or a park under a light or something like that, and neighbors are helping each other be prepared to address safety, explain to our viewers.
If you live in College or if you live in Bryan or you live in any specific city, what you subscribe to doesn't have to be the whole city, this narrows down to specifically the neighborhood you're living in.
Be very intentional about how you set up your account
One of the most important aspects of using NextDoor is to be sure and be very intentional about how you set up your account, one thing we require you to do is verify your address, because our Plus, this platform is all about where you actually live, you're not connecting with friends from elsewhere, this inserts you into actually the neighborhood you live.
It's important to set up your settings so that you don't get emails you don't want or so that you're not a part of conversations that you're not interested in, to have the best experience you want, to go through and set that up and note on the app.
It's all very easy, you can just follow a step by step process and pick where what kinds of conversations, and who you'd like to be connected and what neighborhoods you'd like to be a part of, it puts you in your neighborhood, but there are some surrounding neighborhoods that you can choose to listen in on or be a part of those conversations or you can choose not to.
That's the app and web website that you can use, this is one app that is very useful and important for folks who live here.
