Good Day Wisconsin

You should have a GOOD reason to blog.

Right? I mean yesterday I broke a nail when I was spreading mulch.
It’s on my mind. It hurts because it broke in the middle of my nail and started bleeding.
Got dirt in it and now I’m wondering what will happen because I didn’t wash it thoroughly.

I considered sending a TWEET. Ashton might. Ashton Kutcher has more than a million followers but I’m not entirely sure why. I don’t always understand them. The other night he sent a tweet that he was going to put his head on a pillow. Thanks for the heads up AK! But.. don’t you do that EVERY night?

So what’s the value in Twitter? I think I found it today. Astro Mike sent some really cool tweets. He was up in space eating chocolate like a fish and floating in the middle of his sleeping bag. I was really happy to be part of his Twitter family. That was something interesting to get my morning going.

So we’ve joined Twitter. Good Day Wisconsin that is. We are sending tweets during the show. It’s fun for us. And it was super easy — takes about 2 minutes to sign up.
We’re using Twitter to let our “followers” know that what is coming up on the show, what news just happened, what the weather is like, etc. Instant information!

We’ll try not to send the following.
“Sitting here at the news desk.”
“Taking a bathroom break. Be right back.”
“Pete just sneezed and I said bless you.”

Unless that’s what you really want to hear.

We hope you’ll join the conversation!

Meanwhile.. about my nail… it really hurts.
