I would be very reluctant to poke around with a conductive wire. The
Raspberry- Pi is very sensitive to mis-connection or the shorting together of
adjacent points.
This is in comparison to the Arduino, for instance, which is much tougher.
Ok, you say, you ALWAYS SWITCH OFF before making tests..... ...... Always?
I generally advise that the breadboard, along with the processor board, should
be firmly located on a decent sized tray capable of supporting the wrist while
you are picking along the rows of holes.

Mike,
As for breadboards, I use a a wire to count holes. It is not efficient but
kind of works.
