Cross-posting from my other blog at www.thewayoftheweb.net – it might not be microblogging or lifestreaming, but it’s a really good cause. And my itchy top lip deserves more donations….

The month of Movember is coming to an end on Monday, so if you haven’t donated yet to the worthy cause of raising awareness and funds to tackle male prostate cancer, then maybe this will inspire you.

Yes, that’s my shameful Mo, taken a week ago. It’s not much more impressive now, although it has filled out a bit to look like a less threadbare broom, and more like a doormat made of wire wool.

So if you want to encourage me to take some suitably foolish pictures over the next 4 days, then you need donate. It only takes a matter of seconds, and many of you will have just been paid – so why not donate one or two Christmas drinks worth, save yourself a bit of a hangover, and feel worthy for the rest of the year.

Donate to Dan’s appalling Mo here.

If you want to know more about prostate cancer, start on the Movember Men’s Health page. But the basic facts are that despite the fact men are embarrassed and quite frankly crap at going to the doctor’s and staying healthy, 35,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer in the UK every year. It mainly affects men over the age of 50, and the good news is that if it’s detected early and treated, it’s highly curable.

Go on, donate…
