My ooVoo Day
You may have seen posts around the web talking about My ooVoo Day and I’m happy to say that I’m part of it as well.
On February 11th if you’d like I’ll be online for two hours to chat with anyone about anything. It would be great to connect and you can sign up here.
I’ve played with ooVoo for a while now. It is good to see that they are finally out with a Mac friendly client because I think the ability to do live video chat with five other people is a very powerful thing and something that a lot of people can benefit from.
What makes me most happy about this day is that I was told that I’d have $1500 to donate towards charity. I am a HUGE supporter of giving back in any way possible so this made my day. I’m splitting my donation between the Frozen Pea Fund for breast cancer and the Ma Chen- Autism School in China that my good friend Whitney is championing.
The screen shot is from the sign up page and includes a few of the other great participants. I’m personally looking forward to signing up and chatting with others such as Mitch Joel and Scott Sigler as well.
Hope to see you there.

I can’t thank you enough for doing this- being able to help Ma Chen buy this farm and create a social safety net for autistic children means the world to me. In a place where kids are seen as parents 401K plan, and where one child per couple also means no siblings, these children really have no future unless we can help Ma Chen provide one for them. I almost started crying when you told me last night- Thank you again.
To your readers- if you can, please donate to this fund- the link above will take you to our chipin page, and for the price of a latte, we can all help make the lives of these children secure.

Whitney - when C.C. mentioned your charity in particular, there was no doubt that ooVoo would support it. They’re happy to be letting people connect via their software, and thrilled to be associated with charities that are truly making a difference the peoples’ lives all over the world.
I hope you get the chance to ooVoo someone (wait, that sounds a little weird, doesn’t it?).
