More About the Talkathon
Leading bloggers around the world are scheduled to appear as guests, along with notables from the political, entertainment and literary arenas. Thousands of bloggers have signed on to participate in this year’s Blog Action Day by blogging about poverty and aiding poverty relief efforts. Among the blogs currently involved are TechCrunch, ReadWriteWeb, LifeHacker, Mashable and ProBlogger. Millions of people worldwide will read about the event on October 15.
A non-profit event, Blog Action Day was launched last year when two bloggers asked, “What would happen if all the bloggers of the world united for a single cause?”
What did happen during the United Nations-backed “Blog Action Day 2007: The Environment” was more than 20,000 bloggers offering ways solve help solve hundreds of environmental crises.
