Today is the blog action day, and this year’s focus is poverty. You can go to this website to see for yourself the new posts coming up every minute. The following is an excerpt from the email I received from GiveIndia:

Global issues like poverty are extremely complex. There is no simple, clear answer. By asking thousands of different people to give their viewpoints and opinions, Blog Action Day creates an extraordinary lens through which to view these issues. Each blogger brings their own perspective and ideas. Each blogger posts relating to their own blog topic. And each blogger engages their audience differently.  This event is not just for blogs that write about the development sector; it is open to every type of blogger.

GiveIndia is registered to take part in this movement and I encourage you to do so as well.  Already close to 6000 bloggers have signed up.  What are you waiting for?  Register yourself today and then on October 15, write a post about poverty — your thoughts, how to fix it, a personal anecdote, anything — just do it!
