For 2008, it’s easy to Go Pink.

I’ve said before that Pink for October should have a low bar for entry: Turn your site pink, link to us. The latter is easy, but I get a lot of questions about the former. “How much pink is enough?”

As I said previously, I just changed some of the text on my personal site pink and added an image in the sidebar linking here. But if you want to go further than I did, this post is for you.

Here you can find a short list of links to resources for Going Pink on your site.
