Blog Action Day – Why I Won’t be Taking Part This Year
It takes place every October but this year I won’t be involving myself in Blog Action Day at all.
Blog Action Day is an annual online event that aims to demonstrate the effectiveness of lots of people all blogging about the same topic on the same day. This year 2012, it all happens on the 15th of October.
Previous year’s topics have included:
2008 Poverty
2011 Food
The topic is chosen each year by an authority who decides what the subject shall be and then informs everyone taking part. This year they have plumped for the headline: “The Power Of We”.
Call me grumpy if you like, but from my point of view this topic is at best ambiguous but more probably meaningless, and what irritates me is that it’s monocultural, devisive and most worryingly of all, totally ungrammatical so for that reason, I’m out.
