Upper Peninsula Twitter Accounts to Follow

A number of Yooper Steez readers and customers first heard about Yooper Steez on Twitter where I post articles and talk about the Upper Peninsula frequently on my personal twitter account (@bugsyrocker).

I realize that the majority of my readers are not on Twitter, but by this point you have probably heard about Twitter in the news. Or maybe you’ve heard the words Tweeting, Tweetups, Tweeps, and a variety of other variations.

For those of you not on Twitter I suggest giving it a try. It has connected dozens of Yoopers and Yooper transplants as well as doing wonders for Yooper Steez. For those of you who are going to sign up and those already signed up, here is a list of Upper Peninsula and Michigan “tweeps” to follow.

    I would love to purchase a Yooper t-shirt, however, it seems each time I select one that I like, it is sold out. What’s up with that?

  14. Yooper Steez | October 30th, 2009 5:15 pm | Permalink

    Dan, there are more t-shirts to come! I promise.

  15. HERMo | November 2nd, 2009 11:26 pm | Permalink

    Looking forward the t-shirts!!
