What is Blog Action Day?
Today, October 15, 2008, has been designated as the day set aside for thousands of bloggers with millions of readers (last time I checked over 10 million feed readers) to unite for the purpose of discussing a single issue – poverty.
The hope is that global discussion across the blogosphere will raise awareness, initiate action & shake the web. If you need web resource links to educate yourself, they can be found here: Poverty Action Site Resources. You can also Learn More | Register.
indeed.
for my part, i turn to sites like freerice, kiva, and goodsearch, as ways to help alleviate poverty online.
