Earthquake in Japan

  
   Recently, a lot of social media sites have been used to donate or spread awareness of the earthquake in Japan. What we see is that many people are involved on facebook, myspace, twitter, and other various sites. I think the social media sites have been used in every possible way now.
   As a moderator of the MY.IS forums, we've decided to open up a Japan relief thread to help and donate money to the people in need in the various provinces in Japan. We've had hundreds of dollars donated already and we're now able to spread awareness as well on the forum to the members all around the world. I think forums are a good place to spread awareness because we have people with similar interests focusing on one cause. Forums are used to discuss and inform users of various topics and using that to inform members about Japan is awesome.
   To the families in Japan who are homeless, scared, hungry, etc., MY.IS is doing it's part in helping you all. Our blessings are with every single one of you and please keep your heads up as we continue to do our part.
