===================

Thank You Newsvine - MSNBC!

History
Seattle-based Newsvine was launched in March 2006 by veterans of Disney, ESPN, and other media organizations. Their idea was “to build a perfectly different, perfectly efficient way to read, write, and interact with the news.”

The solution they came up with is Newsvine, a community driven news site with stories from the Associated Press, ESPN and New Scientist as well as individual contributors from all around the world.

Newsvine was acquired by first time buyer MSNBC in October, 2007.

On December , 2007, this blog was launched. We are extemely pleased to have shared blogs over the last 4 years on behalf of Milwaukeeans and humanity. We know we have grown and look forward to 2012 to be a huge "bounce" in connecting with individuals around the world.

We are proud to be one of the many contributors around the world.
Over the past four years, I have chosen to not "seed" or have comments.

During 2012, we will seed from time-to-time - starting with this thank you blog.

Below is an excerpt and a link to the first article.

"Newsvine
One of the main reasons we are excited to be part of the Newsvine.Com contributing family is we know that through efforts of sharing (forums, town hall talks, chat groups, websites, blogs, newsletters,) and talking with like-concerned citizens, we will raise the conscious level of those we touch - those that have, those working to have and the have nots.

We are honored to share the airwaves and look forward to doing our part to make this world a better place for all to live in - one person at a time."
