A British blogger is trying to travel as far around the world as possible in 30 days, relying only on the goodwill of people using social networking site Twitter. Paul Smith aims to travel to Campbell Island in New Zealand, the opposite side of the planet to his home in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, in northern England, and back again "to see if it's possible ... because it might be fun." He also aims to raise money for a water charity, and has so far had more than $6,400 pledged in online donations. (source: edition.cnn.com)
