and now for something completely different...

Things are at a standstill as far as being sorted for me to be in the UK before Santa Claus visits again, so I thought I'd take a chance to chat about an interesting website I've stumbled across in  my web wanderings.

 The Online Volunteering Service is supported by United Nations Volunteers and connects development organizations and volunteers over the Internet and supports their effective online collaboration. Basically, it allows someone to do virtual volunteering for organisations all over the world without leaving the land of fish and chips. The whole process is fairly straightforward. You sign up, search opportunities, submit your interest for an assignment and things move forward from there.

I've only just found it in the last few days so I haven't had much of a chance to really explore all the opportunities, but they seem be quite good. Check out their FAQ for more details. Now I'm off to search for something fun to do. I'll let you know if I find something good!
