I'm writing about the wrong Contest? oh... hum.. well.. then..

If you are a Canadian and want to keep track of the latest contests in your neighbourhood, you should definitely visit this site. It gives you detailed information about which contest is going on where, what you need to do to participate and what you can win.

For everybody who's interested in sports, but bored by the usuall stuff, this site could be a lifechanging enrichment to his leisure time. It offers rules and inspirations for competing with your friends in unusual ways.

And for everybody who's just a keen blogger, Lincoln Adams offers a backlink-contest. I think it's a really nice idea to push your rankings. Participating is quite easy, for more details please read the contest-post, all details are explained there.
"But why should I do so?"
Cause, besides that it is a very nice gesture, you can win a 100$-amazon-gift-certificate.
But hurry folks, the contest will end on October, 24th, so get going!

Blog-Action-Day!

Hey folks, today is Blog-Action-Day and we're all supposed to write something about the environment.



My proposal to do something for the environment is to donate to the WWF.
As I am an animal-loving person, I've been regulary donating during the last years.
However there are some reasons why I donate to them and nobody else:



• It's always your choice how much and how often you donate, no contracts, no minimum amount of money, etc. I personally donate about 10$ every 6 month, that's as much as I can afford as a student, but it's better than giving nothing at all.

• They always have a "special-donation-offer", meaning that you can donate for a special project.
• If you donate "enough" (which means 25$ or more) you'll get a little present, and even if you don't, from time to time they'll send you little treatments like adress-stickers or postcards, for free.

If you don't want to or can't donate, their homepage offers loads of possibilities to participate and raise your voice for a better world.
