Blog Action Day 2008 is a grass roots effort where bloggers and people who create podcasts and videocasts can help spread awareness and start a conversion on a global scale.
The date for blog action day is October 15th, and the focus is on Poverty. If you have a blog or podcast or videocast, sign up and help spread awareness by sharing your views on poverty, and helping to start a global discussion.
The frequently asked questions page for Blog Action Day has a number of ideas on the kinds of topics that you can post about if you participate, and what I like about their list of ideas is that they want you to post something on topic to what your blog is about. Thinking about a topic here for political diamonds, I see many options.
It’s exciting to see an effort like blog action day, and it shows how many people can work together to have their voices heard. I hope to hear yours…

Thanks for the reminder Bill. Poverty is a bigger problem than it needs to be. I’m glad it’s our global focal point.
Thank you, We Are Facebook.
It’s great to see so many people participating. I’m hoping that it does start a larger discussion in many places across the world.
Thanks for putting the word out. I did a post on this on my website too. If you want to, you can go there and steal the vid about blog action day.
Keep up the good fight,
