Asian Earthquake Crisis

Perhaps a PodCast can be done in support of the tragedy?

i was thinking we could sell a mp3 download compilation album as it will get more young people to donate as they will be receiving something in return 4 a donation :?:

[Heart Alpha9]

i have a lot of bands in my contacts who have given me permission to use their tracks im sure some would let us use 4 this and also if the podcasters request material we will be inundated with material maybe even each podcaster finds one track so its truly a joint effort
i have loads of contacts so let me know what you think and who should i speak to about organising this thanks

Have you seen what iPodderX is doing??

I thought this was AWESOME of them to do.

Also, I have contacts with some bands who I KNOW would be cool with a donating a track to a compilation album if one were to come together.

If discussions really get going on this please include me. I'd like to help in any way I can.

If I can be of any help, whether through my podcast or by contacting bands, please let me know.

Let's organize something: personally I like the concept of an actual CD.

Once we have a clearcut mission, foundation, etc...I'll contact all the bands I've played previously and see if they would be willing to contribute a track......

When I think of how distraught the USA was over 9/11, losing over 3.000 people, I cannot even wrap my head around the death toll numbers...

Please tell me how I can help.

We can all try plugging amazon's Red Cross donation button which seems to be working really nicely. Quick, painless, and 100% of all donations go to the Red Cross. It's already raised over 7 Million dollars! Up from 4 Million yesterday.

Amazon Page (ttp://www.amazon.com/paypage/PX3BEL97U9A4I)

Also you can add the following code to your website and all your visitors will be greeted with a personalized message asking them to donate.

For all of us podcasters without sponsors, maybe this can be our first.

Thanks for the HTML Ben. It's on my site and I urge everyone to include it in theirs.

hi ben i read an article that said funds donated to red cross dont neccesarily go direct to the tsunami disaster ? does anyone know if this is correct
www.dec.org.uk is the umbrella group of charities /funds set up 4 this disaster by the government
also the bbc website has a list of the charities involved and how to help

Thanks for posting the code. I just added it to both of my blogs.
