Found an interesting online community, that is growing by the day. CouchSurfing.com helps you make connections worldwide. You can use the network to meet people and then go and surf other members' couches! When you surf a couch, you are a guest at someone's house. They will provide you with some sort of accommodation, a penthouse apartment or maybe a back yard to pitch your tent in. Stays can be as short as a cup of coffee, a night or two, or even a few months or more. When you offer your couch, you have complete control of who visits. The possibilities are endless and completely up to you. Very interesting concept, and one that REALLY uses the Internet to make the world a smaller place and an affordable one to know.

THE SYMBOL OF THE CAMPAIGN IS THE BLACK AND WHITE WRISTBAND. WEAR IT AND YOU STAND IN SOLIDARITY WITH THE PLAYERS AND FANS WHO SHARE YOUR DETERMINATION TO TAKE POSITIVE ACTION AGAINST RACISM IN FOOTBALL."

These are the words you can find at the Nike Stand Up Speak Up site to explain the campaign

Have you seen this? The Nike Freestyle TV spot inspired on the classic Chariots of Fire. Great work, indeed. Perfectly directed by Noan Murro.
