When thinking about the use of technology for the crazy connecting it is capable of, I thought about a campaign that was introduced in a church service I went to a few months ago. The campaign is called 10,000 nets and can be viewed here.
This program has made it so simple to donate, which is often what deters people, that all a person needs to do is text and $10 is charged to their cell phone bill. It shows the collective power to fight for a campaign that is working to buy nets to give to people in Africa to stop malaria all together. In addition there are options to follow this campaign on twitter and get email updates. This process just proves the power of connection through technology and the Internet. Just another way to harness the power of the Internet and technology for a good cause.
This is a good way of making it easier for people to help others.
