Note to fellow bloggers: HUGS Blogathon!

This post is a call (plea) to all those blogs on my blogroll to help me get the word out about my blogathon attempt for this weekend.
I haven't received any sponsorships yet, which isn't a huge deal, but that means I have no projections for what I may raise during that night. This is a little disappointing, but is only a minor setback.
So here's the deal for you bloggers:


You are all aware of the Blogger's Best Friend award (see sidebar) that I passed out this month. Well, I'm going to be handing out another award to the blogger who sends me the most traffic starting today at 12-noon EST and lasting until the end of the blogathon on Sunday at 9AM EST. Extra points will be given to any blog who donates, as well as to any blog who sends someone who donates (make sure they leave a note in the comments that you sent them!).


Also, any blogger who donates through my website will receive a custom designed "Yourblognamehere supports HUGS" button to put on your blog. So, if you donate, make sure to leave me a comment so I can confirm it and design you a button.

Also make sure to check out the other things going on there in the sidebar - I will be matching the highest donation given, up to $50. As well as the highest donor will receive either a t-shirt of their choice from
The Police Shop or a $15 iTunes gift card.

I know it's not much people, but it's really all I have as a broke college student. Anything you guys can do to help me out would be great!
I want to stress the fact that no donation is too small. Anything will help!

Note to Self: The posting for the rest of the week will pertain to this event and some of the topics I would like to cover. Here's hoping for a great success!
