the million tweet.
When I started on here with twitter I had no idea a couple of weird jokes, that didn’t even make sense to me half the time, and funny links would end me up with a million followers. I realize I spend most of the time saying things that are only funny to me or directing you towards my friends songs or buying a t-shirt. I realize we can us Twitter as a social/philanthropic tool in new media too. So I figured my tweet for my millionth follower should be really special. I set up this site to make it easy for us to help our friends in East Africa. To be a part of bringing an end to the longest civil war in Africa that has been largely ignored by the media. tinyurl.com/icpete. This is an example of how every single person counts. If even half of the million people following me donate a dollar to this it will mean a huge difference for these kids. I’ve been there on the ground and its well worth it. Also, those who donate or ReTweet will get a special shout on the site w/ their @name for participating. Thanks to twitter and invisible children for the chance to do this. So much for my millionth follower tweet. (I even worked on my spelling and capitalization for this one! haha kind of.)
I will donate! And never wonder where my money wentz!
