I regret that due to a very important prior engagement I will be unable to attend the light up the night event; however, I am still lighting my candle and hope that some day, we will find peace and goodwill toward ALL people.

I found a way which we, the LGBT community can hit the companies in their wallets by making them pay us, the gay bloggers, and google. Most ads are pay for impression or pay per click type ads. Therefore, I decided we as a community should actively seek out these ads online, particularly ads placed on LGBT friendly websites that are from discriminatory companies and get click happy with them. Each time an LGBT person clicks on these ads, the advertiser has to pay for that click – in same cases I get $0.36 for a click – Google takes a portion too. The click thus costs at least $0.36. Now imagine we get click happy… click click click 100, 200, 300 times amongst many many people – we could cost them a small fortune. It costs us a little time, but we take from their advertising budget and give the money to those people they are preaching against (LGBT bloggers). We can clean up their “blood money”.

I hope this momentum lasts in the gay community. A National Day of Protest has been planned for November 15th at 1:30 CT (check here for your here local information).
