Authorities fear that the death toll will rise to above 300 as many people are unaccounted for.

I came across this information in my RSS reader, but not from a general news feed, but on several money making blogs.  I read both Darren Rowse’s Problogger and Daniel Scocco’s Daily Blog Tips and both featured a story on the bush fires and a great promotion offered by SitePoint to raise money for the Red Cross.

The SitePoint staff has worked around the clock to put together a promotion where not only can you get some great SitePoint books, but also help aid in the Bushfire crisis.

5 Books For The Price of 1

It’s a simple offer page:

  1. Visit the promotion page
  2. Choose 5 of their books
  3. Order the books sometime between now and Friday (2/13/2009) of this week.
  4. SitePoint will give you 5 books for the price of 1.  That’s a $149.75 worth of books for just $29.95
  5. SitePoint will give the money that you pay to the Australian Red Cross

Their goal is to raise over $50,000 and I’m hoping the number is even higher.  I’m definitely putting forth my purchase and here are the books I chose:

  1. The Principles of Beautiful Web Design
  2. The Photoshop Anthology: 101 Web Design Tips, Tricks, and Techniques
  3. Deliver First Class Websites: 101 Essential Checklist
  4. The Flash Anthology: Cool Effects and Practical ActionScript
  5. DHTML Utopia: Modern Web Design using JavaScript and DOM

Good luck to the SitePoint team.  I hope you reach your goal.
