Blog Action Day 2008 Announced

The first Blog Action Day was held in 2007 and was an overwhelming success with over 20,000 blogs participating and generating a lot of buzz about the topic of the environment.  The 2008 Blog Action Day topic has been announced as poverty.  On October 15, 2008, bloggers from around the world will join together to publish posts about world poverty to help draw awareness, possibly donations and more.

If you’re not familiar with Blog Action Day it’s a nonprofit event where bloggers sign up on the Blog Action Day website committing to write about the chosen topic (poverty for 2008) on Blog Action Day (this year it’s October 15th).  You can help to promote Blog Action Day by writing about it on your blog in advance of October 15th and publishing one of the Blog Action Day badges or banners on your blog.
