ACS presents a new tool in the fight against cancer!
The American Cancer Society recently launched a new online social medium called CancerNewsNow.org. Our goal for the site is to spread awareness through sharing stories of hope and cancer related news. Though the official press release for this site will be coming soon, check it out and tell me what you think!

Have a great day!

My link for the day!
So one of the things I’m very proud of is that I am a Longhorn here at the University of Texas. So when I came across this news article I had to post it…great news on the war on cancer.

About
SharingHope.tv is like a television network starring regular folk. They are survivors, patients, caretakers, and relatives showing how they persevere every day with Cancer hovering over their lives. They film their own stories in the comfort of their own homes, using simple and increasingly affordable digital cameras.
By adding your story to SharingHope.tv, you join everyday heroes like Annie in giving hope to people who might be frantically searching the internets for information about a recent cancer diagnosis. If you are a survivor, you probably remember how scary the mountains of information can seem. What would it have been like to stumble across the smiling face of someone who has been there, and is urging you to persevere?
Can you really make a difference in the lives of other cancer patients and family members simply by telling your story? We know you can.
So go to SharingHope.tv and watch the videos. As you will see, the site is still new and needs more of your stories in order to shine. If you have access to a digital camera with video capabilities, please take the time to share hope.
Hi. I’m Kara. I don’t have cancer, but I’ve lost two way-too-young friends and a grandfather to the disease. I have good friends fighting cancer now, and so I join the millions praying for cures. I think SharingHope.tv is an awesome idea, and am doing my best to help spread the word.
Just like SharingHope.tv, I’m still in BETA(that’s social media speak for being pretty new at this blogging thing).

Mike’s Weekly Video Picks
Hi Everyone,
I’m going to be making a weekly pick for the best video on Sharing Hope.TV and repost them here every Friday. If you come across one that you think will be a great selection please let me know! I’m basing my decision on several different factors ranging from visual/audio elements to the video’s message so goodluck to everyone!
