If you have a blog, consider participating in the 2006 Blogathon on July 29th.
Every year, for 24 hours, bloggers post every 30 minutes (roughly). In doing so, they collect pledges from sponsors to benefit the charity of their choice. Sponsors may pledge as little as $1, in a lump sum, or, for the adventurous, pledge a dollar amount for each hour their blogger stays awake during the blogathon.
The current list of bloggers and their charities can be found here:
http://www.blogathon.org/list.php
If you do not feel like being sleep deprived for any longer than necessary, please consider sponsoring a blogger (or three).
My partner and I will be "group-blogging" on our web design business site. Our charity is the American Lung Association.
If you'd like to sponsor us, visit our design site for more details. We are giving away prizes throughout the night, as an incentive to get people to donate (I know that sounds really bad, but sadly, there are people who won't donate unless they get something in return)
If you are participating, post your blog and/or charity and/or sponsor link in this thread!
