Blog Action Day 2008
Electric Venom (as well as I Think Therefore I Blog) will be participating in Blog Action Day 2008, a day on which participating bloggers, podcasters and videocasters collectively exercise their ability to focus global discussion on globally important topic.
In 2008, the Blog Action Day theme is Poverty. Bloggers are free to interpret this as they see fit. We invite bloggers to examine poverty from their own blog topics and perspectives, to look at it from the macro and micro, as a global condition and a local issue, and to bring their own ideas, views and opinions on the subject.
The site provides a list of post ideas for those wondering how to fit the topic into the context of their blog and resources for those interested in learning more (though some on the right may find the resources a bit too biased). Once written, you’ll be asked to insert a snippet of code into your post to help organizers locate and promote participating entries. And, of course, there are all sorts of pretty, shiny banners.
I’m in. Are you?

I sure am in, Kate! I’m managing Blog Action Day’s Twitter account, in fact.
Think huge with this. We can really do an incredible amount with it.
Thanks for mentioning the Twitter account, Easton. I’m following it now.
And I agree: this has the potential to be an amazing, powerful experience for bloggers and readers alike.
