Google and World Diabetes Day
The 2nd World Diabetes Day is coming up this November 14th. Manny Hernandez of TuDiabetes and David Edelman of DiabetesDaily have a petition asking Google to create a doodle for November 14th. This would be a great way to get publicity for World Diabetes Day, as the Google home page gets about 30% of the world's internet traffic every day.Manny and David are hoping to get 20,000 signatures on their petition. It only takes seconds to add your name to the petition, so head over to their petition site now.
Google's doodles appear on their main search page, normally for a holiday, anniversary or birthday. For example, this one for Leonardo da Vinci.

What a great thing! I've signed the petition and will post something about it on my blog sometime in the next week. What a great thing!! :)
This years theme looks at children and young adults with the condition. There is a new video from Diabetes UK that addresses Type 1 Diabetes. I have been contacting people about adding it to their blogs etc over the last couple of weeks!
Let me know your thoughts on the video
