Okay, some of you (yeah, people are coming even though I have failed to publish a post in months. Love you too.) have seen the “Pink for October” button in the sidebar. Most of you have seen them on other, more noteable, reputable, decent, updated blogs. And I’m sure you either know, or can guess, what it’s all about.

For the dummies

For those of you with the deductive skills of a 2 year old, Pink for October is a wonderful idea conceived by Matthew Oliphant of Usability Works. The goal, is to create awareness within the blogging community and beyond for Breast Cancer.

It’s not just pretty colors

So, obviously, this isn’t just about making lots of sites pretty and pink. Breast cancer is very real, affecting one in 9-13 (depending on who you ask) breast cancer is the leading form of cancer in females worldwide. We should take this month to learn about breast cancer, spread the information, and do what we can to help.

Try to educate yourself and others. And visit the Pink for October website to find more going pinkers and stories contributed by people with first-hand accounts of how Breast Cancer can affect a life.

Just Do It!

Sure it’s already October, but it’s not too late to go pink yourself. I myself still need to work on the comments section and do some clean up. Why not? Pink it up, maybe you’ll save a few boobies.
