Changing the World 2.0
MAY 14, 2009Eazibee, HappyNews ColumnistI thought I'd share this article from Treehugger today.It's a great list of some of the things you can do to change the world for the better, using social media. The list includes actions like rating a company online, using Twitter to raise funds for charity or to stimulate activism, and working as an online citizen journalist when you travel - and the article provides all kinds of links to help you get started. Definitely some options worth investigating, I'd say. And you don't even have to leave your couch...Check out my cousin Maps' new single, which was released yesterday. It's called "Let Go of the Fear" - the perfect RTBH anthem! Turn it up loud, put YouTube on full screen - and enjoy. www.youtube.com/watchRead the Treehugger story: www.treehugger.com/files/
