g’night chips and all.
Nighty night Chipsticks and TOD’ers. It’s been one heck of a day. 🙂 Hope to catch you all here tomorrow.
Chipsticks, I think the youtube video will hit one millions views this weekend. I also like all the lovely comments that are allowed in… I want to give a shout out to the TOD member who suggested you place the clip on Youtube.. Finally, I will go back to the archives this weekend to get the name of that person..
Just signed back in to say goodnight to all!! Sasha looks so innocent and sweet in that picture!! Thank God I am not her mummy because I would let her get away with so much with a face like that!
Gonna watch that baby video before I retire to bed 😀
Good nite Chipsticks and TODers. What a day, what a night!
We must stop wasting our time on these people who are getting paid to play games. I am old and these is no game time left for me. We can do this, we did it before. I tell you what works for me.
Communication Be the media, Spread the news.
During 2008 I build a network to send out information and news. We use emails. Goal was voter registration and door to door. Email and cell phones
For 2012
We are using Facebook networks to report the news and policy information. I signed up for tweeter still a newbie. Send stuff to media repeat until they report it, tweet everyone that they have the info but are not reporting. If they lie call them on it. I have some black press and radio in my network that helps for events. So many people have no idea what’s going on, when they find out all the new stuff they can take advantage. Busy people get involved. I love this site and BWD tons of good info and news.
HI Sonia. I am using Twitter now also. I signed up months ago but just didn’t like it at first but it is an excellent tool. Not only does it keep me informed, it allows me to spread articles to others.
Jackie and Sonia – I’ve just started using twitter, but it’s already taken up many hours of my day just keeping track of everything. Great tool though – I just have to get disciplined with it.
I love that picture of Michelle, her girls and her Mom.
