Wanna Swap Stuff with Nate Berkus???

Posted on Mar 31, 2009 11:42 AM

Do you secretly covet your best friend's couch? Have you ever walked into a neighbor's house and wished you could have her dining room table or kichen hutch? My crackerjack team and I are working with Nate Berkus on an idea unlike anything we've done and seen before! We're looking for a brave group of 4-10 neighbors and friends who are willing to participate in an old-fashioned swap meet. Each neighbor will select 3-5 pieces of furniture from her house that she's willing to part with for at least six months or a year. America's top decorator, Nate Berkus, will preside over your swap meet and decide which pieces should go in which house. For instance, he may think your bedframe looks better in your neighbors house and your neighbors dining room table looks great in yours. Modern swap meets are a great way to get a new look and new stuff without spending a lot of money. And just imagine Nate Berkus in YOUR home giving you and your friends decorating advice--he'll even tell you how to arrange your furniture! If you're interested, go to oprah.com--and under "Be On The Show," click on "An Oprah Show Swap Meet With Nate." Write to us TODAY--our deadline is fast approaching!

I'm coming clean. As the last Harpo Producer to post a blog entry (is that how you say it?) I'm announcing to the world (it's no secret here at Harpo) that I am the least tech-savvy producer in the bunch. I'm old enough that I never completed one homework assignment on a computer. When I went to college, it was with a big clunky electric typewriter under my arm. No Macbook for me. Back then, an apple was something you ate.

When I was told we were going to start blogging, I had to fire up the google and find out the definition of a blog. For those in the dark ages like me, blog is short for "weblog." I'm just now trying to wrap my head around "twitter."

So, this is a brave new world for me and an exciting new adventure on which I invite you to join me and my producing comrades. Tell us what you think about our shows--what do you want to see more of and what could you do without. We crave your input!

At Harpo, we work in teams and each team is responsible for one show about every other week. My team is searching for a topic for our next show so now's your chance to tell us what you want.

Thanks for reading this techno-phobes first attempt at a blog. To be continued.... Look out!
