About RealMadison.org: An Invitation to Join, Create, and Converse

Hi, everybody! RealMadison.org is an experiment in community journalism. Don't let the j-word scare you off. We're not talking about formal training or professional status. We're just looking to create an online space where we the people of Madison and Lake County can record and share our stories, photos, opinions, and who knows what else.

RealMadison.org can be the face and voice of Madison online, our authentic picture of what life is like on our beautiful stretch of prairie.

Have an event you want to publicize? A local news story you want people to know more about? A shout out to friends across town or across the country who like to keep up with what's going on around town? Then RealMadison.org is the place for you! Want to participate? It's easy.... Just sign up for an account.

One request: we're all neighbors here, and RealMadison.org is a public space. We ask that you come to this space as a neighbor, openly, honestly, and speaking in your own name. Please pick a username (or provide profile information) that allows us to know who you are, just as we would if we were chatting on Main Street.

Remember, this is our community, online and offline. Let's make the most of it!
