3 days to go, if you're struggling with writers' block on what to write on the big day, I hope these ideas can help. But please, do not limit yourself to these. Be as creative and as talented as you are.

Also, who can guess the most important celebrity who's going to Join us this year in blogging? Make the wildest guess you can

Tips:

Make sure your title says, Blog for Jordan day. (or #B4JO for short, and for topic to get tracked in Twitter)
You can alternatively add the tag B4JO to your post, it will get automatically "Hashtagged" in Twitter
Be creative while selecting your title, I recommend having the word "Jordan" in the title somewhere
If you can add pictures, make sure you tag them with "Blog for Jordan day:" or B4JO for short
You don't have to link to the original article or even mention it, but it would be great if you can
If at all possible, add one of the Blog for Jordan day gadgets in your article. It's completely up to you though
