			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>By now you're hopefully aware of the <a title="Lend us your screens. Spread the word. Help to make poverty history." href="http://www.g8reboot.net">G8 REBOOT</a> initiative.</p>
<p>To be honest, I was a little sceptical when fellow saffer <a title="G8 REBOOT - Help to spread the word. Lend us your screens. - oneafrikan.com" href="http://www.oneafrikan.com/archives/2005/06/23/g8-reboot-help-to-spread-the-word/">Gareth</a> e-mailed me with his ideas for the reboot, given the time frame, my current workload, and the Make Povery History campaign's existing and extensive <a title="Get Involved" href="http://www.makepovertyhistory.org/getinvolved/index.shtml">involvement resources</a>. But after a week of e-mail exchange, I became convinced that it was certainly something worth at least attempting.</p>
<p>So I threw together a logo, we met up a few days later (it turned out that Gareth lives just around the corner from my flat) and over two nights working into the early morning, we completed and launched the website. Gareth wrote a <a href="http://www.oneafrikan.com/archives/2005/06/23/g8reboot/">press release</a> on Thursday and has done a good job of getting the word out.</p>
<p>It's over to you now - if you own a website, or know someone that does, <a title="Lend us your screens. Spread the word. Help to make poverty history." href="http://www.g8reboot.net">please lend us your screens</a>. Community create awareness. Also take a second to <a title="Sign the Live 8 List" href="http://www.live8list.com/en/">add your voice</a>. Saturday July 2nd will be the day the world demands justice. And if you're one of the lucky-1-in-7-chance buggers to attend the London concert and see Coldplay live, but can't decide who to take with... how ya doin'! ;)</p>
<p>And on that note, bands your iPod will love you for. <a href="http://www.takingbacksunday.com">Taking Back Sunday</a>. Last Sunday. F-awesome! Oh yeah, and that Green Day band were good too. ;) We unfortunately missed the beginning of Jimmy Eat World's set, and didn't quite get into it after that. I'd love to catch them as a headline act. It's the humble opinion of this blogger that they would've stolen the show given the chance. I flickr'ed <a title="Green Day American Idiot '05 tour - slide show" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/coda/sets/502533/show/">a couple of photos</a> - or if you prefer, <a title="65, 000 Crowd Panorama" href="http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=20673205&amp;size=o&amp;context=set-502533">my</a> <a title="Punk chick" href="http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=20673503&amp;context=set-502533&amp;size=o">four</a> <a title="Green Day" href="http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=20673635&amp;context=set-502533&amp;size=o">favourite</a> <a title="Green Day" href="http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=20673821&amp;context=set-502533&amp;size=o">shots</a>. <a title="Baker Street Station" href="http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=20673913&amp;context=set-502533&amp;size=o">And</a>.</p>
<p>What else. <a title="The Ultimate Resource for Web Designers" href="http://www.total-web-design.com/wd.php">Web Designer magazine</a> invited me to feature in an upcoming issue, in a profile Q&amp;A format along with selected items from my <a href="/portfolio">portfolio</a>. I'll let you know when it hits the shelves. Also thanks to <a title="inspirational gathering" href="http://www.wellvetted.com">WellVetted</a> (twice over), <a title="The no frills inspirational site" href="http://www.cssimport.com">CSS Import</a> and <a href="http://cssdesign.se/recensioner/coda">cssdesign.se</a> for the recent linkage lovin'.</p>
<p>And lastly, random rant - what's with people misspelling Cape Town as "Capetown"! R.E.M. did this on their latest tour which really grated me, as have a few others since. Or coda.coza as "Coda Coza", for that matter. Come now, respect the brand. :)</p>

<p>Every single day, <strong>30,000 children die, needlessly</strong>, of extreme poverty.<br />
On <strong>July 6th</strong>, we finally have the <strong>opportunity to stop</strong> that shameful statistic.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.g8reboot.net" title="G8 REBOOT - Lend us your screens. Spread the word. Help to make poverty history."><img src="http://www.g8reboot.net/img/buttons/gr8_150x40a.gif" style="border: 0pt none ; width: 150px; height: 40px" alt="G8 REBOOT" /></a></p>
<p>8 world leaders, gathered in Scotland for the G8 summit, will be presented with <strong>a workable plan to double aid, drop the debt and made the trade laws fair</strong>. If these 8 men agree, then we will become the generation that made poverty history.</p>
<p><strong>But they'll only do it if enough people tell them to.</strong></p>
<p>We don't want your money - we want you!</p>
