Causes.com : I’m joining a great project.

one comment

I’m now part of Causes which already has nice success stories, but what is Causes?

Causes was founded on the belief that in a healthy society, anyone can participate in change by informing and inspiring others. The most successful movements have always been born out of and held together by the bonds of real world relationships, and online social networks present never before seen opportunities for organizing. We strive to build tools for people to mobilize their friends for collective action, spread the word to friends of friends and acquaintances, and eventually launch movements that span local communities or even the globe.

Causes is also one of the largest current website using Ruby on Rails, and is recruiting developers. So get in touch with me if you’re looking and feel like a Rails hacker, and feel free to follow @caretopia.

TweetSell.it allows you to see what’s being sold on Twitter, in real-time. You can also see what’s being sold near you, or search for specific items like the iPhone4. I’ve had the idea for a long time, but I only released the service a few days ago.

What do you think? How do you like it? What should be included? Let me know here or through my twitter @fabienpenso. There are more features to come later like online payment.
