Give to Charity the Web 2.0 Way

Cnow.orgA friend of mine, Chad Arimura, sent me an email yesterday letting me know about his new non-profit organization called Cnow.org. The site is a very web 2.0 way to give to your favorite charity; quickly and easily.

Some interesting features are listed here:
  • It's easier than writing a check and your records are stored for tax time
  • Setup automatic monthly donations to your favorite charities
  • Start and stop monthly donations with one click

What a great idea and it makes it so much better that it's all for a good cause. Sign up and give y'all!

If I Were a VC Part 2: Joost

If I were a VC, I would be making phone calls to Niklas Zennström and Janus Friis to tell them I want to put all my money into Joost, their new company, for a cool 25%. And if they told me to take a hike, I would then fly over to Europe to meet them in person and beg on my hands and knees for them to let me invest.

What is Joost?

Just think of your cable TV at home... then make it free.

Here's a good write up with screenshots of Joost if you want to see what it looks like.

Leave a comment here if you want a free beta invite, I've got some to give away.
