by Joanna on October 7, 2008

Blog Action Day 08 is taking place next Wednesday, 15th October.

If you haven’t heard what it’s about this short video will introduce you to the main idea: to open up a different kind of conversation about the global issue of poverty.

Thank you for spreading the word, Joanna. I am liking your WP theme!

Easton, thanks for taking the time to pop over – I guess you must be busy just now!

Valeria, I’m happy to spread the word. Glad you like the theme – I’m finding that wordpress offers lots of wonderful ways to support and encourage the conversational dimension of blogging…
