These are two photos of me and Tharum Bun , a Cambodia blogger I met via our blogs back in 2003. In 2005, we got a chance to meet face-to-face in London at the Global Voices Blogging Summit after I transitioned from being the Cambodia bridge blogger.

In less than 24 hours, I've raised $806 to help children in Cambodia using a new feature in Facebook Causes. Celebrating Birthdays is definitely part of Facebook culture.

I have two favorites: The Sharing Foundation which supports children in Cambodia and Creative Commons. Foundation has created the 2007 Gifts of Hope campaign in order to do just that; meaningful giving can bring hope, protection and security to the most vulnerable of our global family.
