CTA TATTLER

You can sign up to receive wireless alerts of breaking news on your cell phone. After the Chicago Tribune featured a story about the CTA Tattler Blog in August 2005, more than 300 individuals have signed up for wireless alerts. The stories will explain why many evacuees from Hurricanes Katrina and Rita shudder at the thought of having to relocate to Chicago.
