Here is what I'm asking you:
1) Re-post my original request and this post if you want to. Tell your friends, your co-workers, your family members. Cutting and pasting has never been easier or likely to help more people.

Once you have filled out the appropriate info -- easy stuff, name, username, email address, birth year -- then you will get an email to your email address: You'll get an email from Oprah's web people sending you an activation link that you will need to click on in order to get started.

Pass it on.
