This is an excellent suggestion. I believe that most (if not all) of
us grow plants from both hemispheres and it would be a great way to
track what is going on with our bulbs from various climates, perhaps
encourage some of the less adventurous of us (like myself) to attempt
bulbs we would have otherwise not considered as suitable for our
conditions.

I would find it helpful to have one TOW per month (or every second
month?) be a "What you should be doing now NH" (Northern Hemisphere)
and ditto SH.
Besides telling what I should be repotting or watering or
twin-scaling, it could also include information about sources. For
instance, I try to remember when to check various websites so I can
order bulbs, but invariably I get a message like: "Our shipping
season is over, but we've left these gorgeous photos so you can see
what you missed."
