Tonight the head meteorologist of the local CBS affiliate here in Seattle did a pretty creative piece of journalism. He set up a live feed from his iPhone to Facebook and then opened up his FB page for questions about tonight's storm and another we are expecting on Thursday. You could type in a question and he was answering it or sharing comments within seconds. It was simple and real.... He was on for almost an hour. Lots of great information. What a great way to connect with the community he serves. I don't care much about Facebook for sharing personal stuff, but I think it is an incredible tool for sharing timely weather information.
Thought I'd share,
Greg

True, although Twitter is probably even better in this respect.
