Blogathon 2009

[Etoile]

Hey dudes, I'm doing the blogathon this year. It started at 6am PST and continues for 24 hours. I'm posting every 30 minutes for charity. So far I am JUST shy of $300. If you want to come hang out, leave me a comment, cheer me on, or even (gasp) donate, it's here:

My charity is the Best Friends Animal Society and when you go to my site you'll read all about them!

Hmmm...

I can either donate and hand out my real name and email address or donate completely anonymous - no option to donate using a pseudonym? How stupid.

Well, you can tell me how much you want to donate, and I'll enter a "proxy donation" into my blogathon list. You donate at the regular Best Friends website when the blogathon is over. You do have to use your real name for that, unless you send them cash, I guess. Or perhaps I'm just not understanding what your concern is?

He wants credit for donating, but doesn't want to reveal his real name to the Internet at large.

He doesn't have to. I can put down a proxy under Primalex and he can make his donation directly to Best Friends.

Not perfect, but I guess this will have to do. For 2010 tell them they need to add the option to publish a pseudonym to the blogger. You can add me with $50.

YOU ARE AWESOME. I thank you, the Best Friends staff thanks you, the 1700 animals at the ranch thank you, and animals around the world thank you (see my latest post).

I forgot to add, I'm doing a contest for a $25 Amazon gift certificate, too! No matter what amount you pledge, you're in the running for the gift certificate.
