Website Blogging Service, Debuts by Scrapblog, for March of Dimes Charity Effort

Miami, Florida - (Website Hosting Directory) - October 26, 2007 - Blog application for scrap books, Scrapblog, has joined with the March of Dimes charity, to engage a new storytelling campaign, which uses an online scrapbooking service to share experiences and encourage donations.

The national grassroots project invites people to tell their most memorable, relevant, inspiring or humorous baby stories through an online scrapbook powered by Scrapblog at www.marchofdimes.com/everybaby. Participants can create compilations of images, videos, audio and captions to tell a baby's story. Scrapbooks can then be shared with family and friends by email or on social networking sites. Those who receive an online scrapbook also can donate to the March of Dimes, which works to give every baby a healthy start in life.

Doug Staples, Senior Vice President of Strategic Marketing and Communications for the March of Dimes remarked, ''There is already a large online conversation taking place among families and friends sharing the stories of their newborns. A partnership with Scrapblog for this campaign allows the March of Dimes to further tap into this lively community, giving people the tools to enhance their stories and motivate loved ones to donate. Scrapblog is extremely easy to use, and as opposed to just sharing an online photo album, being able to incorporate a truly personal touch inspires people to dedicate time to create something that inspires others. It also provides a much more interactive experience for families and friends living far away.''

Carlos Garcia, CEO and Founder of Scrapblog offered, ''Scrapblog is delighted to be partnering with the March of Dimes for the Every Baby campaign, allowing us to be part of an effort to improve the lives of newborns and their families. We're happy to provide an experience for the user that is easy, enjoyable and allows for very personal and heartfelt creations. Scrapblog also makes sharing content extremely easy via Facebook and Flickr, as well as by email or personal blogs such as Blogger and Wordpress, helping to create awareness of the March of Dimes campaign and the organization itself.''

In addition to the web site, the March of Dimes 'Every Baby Has a Story Tour' motorcoach will be traveling to 15 cities nationwide through November 13. Equipped with computers and Internet access, it will invite visitors to walk in and learn how they can create an 'Every Baby Has a Story' scrapbook of their own.
