    Twit-athon

    We are trying something out here - from our friends @pistachio and @tipjoy - betaworks and tipjoy will each match up to $5000 by getting this experiment/good cause to work.

    1. What can $2 do?
    2. How can I thank and honor clients and friends of Pistachio Consulting this year?
    3. What do I want most of all for Christmas?

    Well Wishes.

    I want to make a big difference. To save kids lives. It’s a tough year though. I don’t want to ask much of any one person. I realized just $2 from each of my Twitter readers would be $25,000. If everyone who reads this - YOU - gives just $2, Charity: Water can build an entire water project for a school or hospital in Africa. Betaworks and Tipjoy liked my idea and will 1) waive ALL fees for their “micropayments via Twitter” tool, and 2) match up to $10,000. Donate NOW just by tweeting:

    p $2 @wellwishes for (your message here) via @tipjoy

    or donate via PayPal to wellwishes@pistachioconsulting.com (they will deduct a fee)

    When else can you make SUCH a difference for just $2? Are you in? Can you spread the word? Can this become a new way of “many hands/light work” using new tools and communities?

    Well Wishes
