Save BuzzFlash

By Libby

I remember when I first discovered BuzzFlash, I almost wanted to keep it a secret because it was so valuable an aggregator for blogging. Somehow, day after day, week after week, with months slipping into years, they assemble the best collection of underreported news known to man. As a new blogger trying to break into the big time, I was tempted to keep that edge for myself. But my natural inclination to share and the impossibility of keeping up with the content on a daily basis soon caused me to pass its link on far and wide.

I never knew much about them though until they posted this appeal for funds today. They've been at this since 2000 and survived on donations, the sale of premiums and the support of their founders who had other employment and were able to underwrite much of the expenses. Unfortunately, even they are feeling the pinch of the Bushenomic bust and the founders now find themselves without the funds necessary to keep BuzzFlash going on their own and they need to raise substantial cash to keep this vital resource going.

If you don't feel you can make an outright donation, they have a huge selection of books and other items at a fair price that would make great presents during this holiday season. Please consider doing what you can to help. Losing BuzzFlash would greatly dim our ability to keep an eye on the corrupt establishment that threatens to destroy civil society as we know it.
