Live Bloggin' It--The World's Biggest Blog Party-the ki & simple pleasure Saturdays 27 Oct 2007 04:46 am

Saturday Simple pleasure….

a new friend, bringing in EGGS, after we’ve all been up all night blogging.  I swear….this foodie is freakin’ starving and those eggs, no matter how they’re cooked, are going to be fantastic!

Why are we blogging for 24 hrs. straight???? In an effort to Connect the Globe for Good! So head over to theworldsbiggestblogparty.com, choose a charity (or more) and click on their “donate” button! It’s that easy and the $$ goes directly to some very wonderful causes.

No donation is too small; just give! (and maybe spread a little of your own Saturday simple pleasure in the comments?)

It’s 3am and I must be lonely…

Rob Thomas said it but it ain’t true tonight baby!

How did it become 3 am already?! This has been SO MUCH FUN! Now, things are quieter…kind of. We have Dave Matthews on a giant movie screen, hot cups of coffee, and drowsy blogging going on. And what is the best part?

HUMAN CONNECTION.

That’s right….people meeting people and empowering others. Getting outside ourselves, of our comfort zones. Reaching out to help another, to bring someone one and their cause into a larger light…for good.

Over and over again the theme of “relational connectivity” came out in the interviews and conversations. And that is what blogging is all about…this powerful tool called “the internet” has brought people into contact with one another that otherwise would not ever have met. It’s “web 2.0″ at it’s essence: getting to know the person behind the information.

A quick look at our world map shows were succeeding in our effort to “connect the globe for good”.

Onward!

Live Bloggin’ it…theworldsbiggestblogparty.com!!!

It’s HHHHHEEEEEERRRRRRRREEEEEE!!! Tonight is the 24 hr live kick off event for the theworldsbiggestblogparty.com…Connecting the Globe for Good! I’m here at a table, in a room with several other live bloggers, watching belly dancers, in a velvet draped theater. It’s freakin’ FANTASTIC!!!!! This endeavor has just GROWN like a snowball…all week I’ve been meeting people I never would have come into contact with before. And we have a REAL CHANCE at raising ONE MILLION dollars for charities…check out the site…donate today. There are a bunch of them there and I tell you, amazing people and stories behind every single one. The vibe here is quite electric and fun!!!

And if you are local….get your hiney down here and live blog it yourself!! Choose a charity (I’m interviewing Casa De Sara and To Write Love On Her Arms myself tonight) and let’s get 1000 bloggers raising $1000 dollars each to CONNECT THE GLOBE FOR GOOD!
