one million donations? seriously? and I'm a little wary about providing my personal information to an anonymous web site as everyone else should be. just pledge with the official campaign, it's better all around.

Agree. One million donations is guaranteed to fail.

I don't ever do these pledge things. I don't think I go to those sites. They really seem like an opportunity to grab email addresses.

Can't that website be a heck of a lot better? It's almost like people decided that these money bomb pages be as single purpose as possible.

I would add a section to the blackthisout.com website called "black this out" parties or "black this out" events a "black this out" volunteers section. "black this out" promotion section. A place to download the black this out logos, ads, templates. All the information we need about the blackthisout moneybomb should be found
at the blackthisout.com site. Not just enter your data and we'll send you an email on the moneybomb day.

Parrocks, I second this idea. I actually reformatted my design to allow for unlimited vertical content, so all of those things would be pretty easy to implement.

I think the pledges used to be a good indicator of excitement that was building. 2007 was before Twitter had much of any audience.

Facebook has been a convenient way to "attend" an event without sharing your email address with who knows who... Personally, I don't like FB being a middleman counter for me. Multiple options on updating people is probably best.

People are waking up and the media blackouts helped.

Facebook is big brother now. Events are apprehended by federal agents and local police.

Dusman, you're one of the leaders on the internet front, shouldn't blackthisout.com be much much more?

It's a great URL - it's the best one.

How about that social portal surrounding this moneybomb?

Tea Party had events on the ground.

The meetups are looking for something to do.

There should be events all over the place on moneybomb day.

Done by the local meetups.

I like the idea of "Constitution Day Parties" and also "Black This Out" party.

I'd like to communicate with all the meetups and suggest that they should have events on all tea party days.

That could really be all they do. Bring computers / tablets, so everyone there can be rooted on to more spending.

But the core point is that there is so much more that all of these sites should be. There definitely should be a "tips on how to promote the money bomb" section whether there are events or not.
 
This moneybomb is in Oct, not to far from halloween. How about we get people to dress in all black and go out in public.

I'd like to see it be a lot more. Unfortunately, it's not my project.. so not my say. I contribute where needed.

However, I would really like to see some national collaboration with the meetups. For this moneybomb in particular, I think each meetup group should plan a peaceful "protest" at every local news station in the country. I would focus most of that effort to getting on camera of the morning shows, conducted outside in the crowds.

In particular, if I had to put all my marbles in one thing. I'd like to see several hundred supporters together in New York City on that day for the Morning Show there. What's the one Al Rucker was always on? They always go to the crowds outside for that show. They would be forced to show our signs and such.. and it would create a lot of buzz and certainly the reporters would have to comment on it. By doing that, you expand out to probably a few million people that morning. That would help take it offline and grab the attention of those who aren't fixated on their computers like we all are.

That's kind of neat. However, I'm not sure how well received large groups of people dressed in black would be. lol, just saying.

They would be kind of noticeable, actually I think they might get some coverage.

To make it not so creepy.. I think if that group all wore "Black This Out" t-shirts, it would pull off that effect.

I had a thought at one point to stand on the corner of my town with black electrical tape over my mouth and holding a sign saying something like "Don't Censor Me".

That might be interesting. It would certainly be dramatic having hundreds of people on that morning show with Black This Out shirts, signs... and every one of them with their mouths taped.
