My Dearest Readers,

After the awesome feedback on Meggie Bassil’s guest blog post, “A Handful of Stones“, I’ve decided to employ WordPress’s SocialVibe widget to try and help fundraise for research into Autism.

This widget enables bloggers to choose a specific charity from those available, once chosen, readers of the blog can choose to do “activities” on the widget, which include trivial tasks chosen by advertisers, such as answering a poll or question, or liking a facebook page or tweeting it. Every task you do earns the equivalent of 1 minute of behavioral intervention research for Autism Speaks.

So, you will notice on the right of the page the “socialvibe” widget, so please, spare a minute to click the activities, and help us raise some money for this charity, that aims to fund research into understanding, preventing and treating autism. Let’s try to get to 1,440 minutes, or 24 hours of research by the end of this month =)

Thanks in advance everyone =)
