Numerous posts and tweets have been hitting the Utah scene lately concerning Phil Burn’s daughter, Serenity, being diagnosed with Leukemia. I blogged a couple days ago about the new Chip In Widget, created by Jesse Stay, that thankfully has been distributed amongst a handful of bloggers and is seeing a good up-tick in donations.

I subscribe to the Ken Radio newsletter. He often provides tidbits of information that I find interesting, with this last newsletter being no exception as it was concerning the demographic of the woman blogger.
