Remembering the Victims of 9/11

Bloggers needed for 2,996 Project

[...]
On September 11, 2009 the participants of Project 2,996 will join in a massive blogburst. With enough participants I hope we can flood the blogosphere and the internet with the names faces and stories of the 2,996 people who were murdered for doing nothing more than living their daily lives.

Here's the sign up page. I have my name already but they need lots more folks.

What is 2996?

from their website:

On September 11, 2006, more than 3,000 bloggers joined together to remember the victims of 9/11.

Each year we will honor them by remembering their lives, and not by remembering their murderers.

If you would like to help out, by pledging to post a tribute on your own blog on 9/11 of this year, click the button at the top of the sidebar (on their website or go directly to sign up page

Then, use the web to learn something about the life of the name you are given, and on 9/11, post your tribute your blog or website. NB - they have an area set up for you to post a tribute if you do not have a blog or website

But, and this is critical, the tributes should celebrate the lives of these people–kind of like a wake. Over the last 5 years we’ve heard the names of the killers, and all about the victim’s deaths. This is a chance to learn about and celebrate those who died. Forget the murderers, they don’t deserve to be remembered. But some people who died that day deserve to be remembered––2,996 people.

Thank you,
