EFF Blogathon

Check out the Electronic Frontier Foundation Blogathon:

For the past 15 years, EFF has been fighting to preserve the constitutional right to freedom of expression on the Internet. In the last few years, we've seen an explosion of expression as new web publishing tools emerged, providing countless netizens with their own personal First Amendment machines. This month is our 15th anniversary and to celebrate, we're putting these publishing tools front and center. We're holding a weeklong EFF15 Blog-a-thon where you're invited to blog about your personal experiences fighting for freedom online — a project that will celebrate new publishing tools, attract new EFF members, and mark our 15th all at once.

"But wait." you say. "What interest could I possibly have in freedom of expression on the Internet?"

On August 9, we will announce the names of the three best bloggers and publish their posts on our website. We'll put the announcement in our weekly newsletter, EFFector. And as an extra thank you, we'll send the authors a blogging "kit": an EFF bloggers' rights T-shirt, special EFF-branded blogger pajama pants, a pound of coffee, and a pair of fuzzy slippers.

Cool!
