Quite a few people return from their first Glastonbury festival saying "it's changed my life". If you want to be a part of the magic, change your life and get involved with Greenpeace to help stop climate change, you'll have to take action... ah, I mean, register now.

Glastonbury god father Michael Eavis is trying to stop touts selling on festival tickets. He believes that the best way to ensure that the person who buys a ticket on 1 April is the same person who actually goes to the festival is to have his or her photograph on the ticket. So everyone who wants to buy a ticket on 1 April will need to register during the month of February – and provide a photograph of themselves.

You can register online at http://www.glastonburyregistration.co.uk or by post.

We can almost promise it will change your life, but more importantly, if we get over 100,000 people together and commit to action on climate change - we will make a difference.

You can visit us in the Green fields to find out how you can get involved, or follow the festival online with our iCount backstage blogger winners. You can also find out more about Greenpeace at Glastonbury on our 2005 Glastoblog.

Register and together we can cool it. Together let's make Glastonbury COUNT.

Richard, known at "Watty" to his many friends around the world, died Monday after a two year struggle with illness.

He participated in Greenpeace actions all over the world, worked on Greenpeace ships, went to jail and took the stand at trial in defence of his beliefs for a green and peaceful world.

Please share your stories and thoughts here for his partner Rachel, his family and his many friends in memory of our much loved and respected friend and colleague.

So Steve Jobs, Apple guru and all-round groovy guy, has made his keynote speech at MacWorld. But there was something missing - no word on what Apple should be doing to sort out the toxics in its iPods, not to mention their shoddy recycling policy. So we've done a little bit of re-editing so we can all hear what Steve should have said.

If you like it, spread the word on Digg and Hugg.
