That is a cool idea about broadcasting a happy birthday message. Some of my friends are abroad traveling so getting a birthday card and gift to them will be hard. I am sending birthday e mail greeting cards this year. They are fun and a little bit different.
I think it is cool as will, and thank you for visiting my directoryofottawa, and reading my Blog. Please do it often.
