Just wondered how many of us have a twitter account. I have one for my real business and also post some of my photos there. Short story one of my tweets was picked up today by the Weather Nation (I don't follow them and they don't follow me) and they asked if they could use it for their 3 and 3:30 live reports. Since I never really knew about them I did a quick Google check, downloaded their app from the play store and gave them permission to use the photo.
Before we get into the old "did you get paid" I don't do this for a living and really don't care about a picture used on TV or Internet as long as my name is attached to it. Besides as my daughter, who is a pro, said "Dad it's great for the resume since you do help me from time to time". So I figure the brag value for her is worth more anyway.
Back to the original question, have any of you had things picked up like this from twitter? I have had a couple of my photo tweets re-tweeted by the local newspaper but never a more National Service like this one.
