Blog Action Day 2008
ADVERTISEMENTS
It is about to make the world better. It is about poverty and how to solve a kind problem in this world. Let us do small things together. Why I talk about it? Because I am participating in Blog Action Day, today.
So, What Is Blog Action Day?
In 2008, the Blog Action Day theme is Poverty. Bloggers are free to interpret this as they see fit. We invite bloggers to examine poverty from their own blog topics and perspectives, to look at it from the macro and micro, as a global condition and a local issue, and to bring their own ideas, views and opinions on the subject.
If you want it, you can join Blog Action Day, and make some wonderful story about poverty. This is some fact why we should join it.

A few months ago I joined Kiva.org and started to lend money on some entrepreneurs, maybe my total money that have been lent is not big, but I really sure that each small step will be make differences. So I started do this.
Let’s make a better life by helping each other and spread happiness to this world.
This is a great cause. Poverty leads to desparation, which leads to crime and suffering. If we can successfully combat poverty, even one or two percent, the number of people committing crimes of theft or even violence will drop dramatically.
