The official campaign should really change their ticker from "dollars pledged" to "number of pledgers" (just like blackthisout.com).

Seeing the dollar total doesn't fire people up as much imo (especially when it's pretty low as it is right now at $71k). There's nothing gained from knowing what each person plan to donate - the dollar/donor total on the 19th will be plenty high if it ends up being 'mega-bomb' big.
During nearly the entire '07 campaign the site http://ronpaulgraphs.com/ plotted donations in real time and during the money bombs this was one of the most popular RP sites. On 11-05-07 RonPaulGraphs had bandwidth problems and asked that folks check in no more than once every ten minutes as I recall.
This was posted in another thread. Do you plan on tracking donations in real time on the site?
There is at least one RP2012 site that is plotting donations in real time .

I think BlackThisOut should email links to any and all sites that plot donations in real time so folks can monitor the graphs.
I'm not sure how they were tapping into the stream of data.. but I have a graph sort of ready to go in case we can figure it out in time.
If 100 people "COMMIT 1 HOUR A DAY" to promoting the Oct 19th "Black THIS Out" Money Bomb, that would = 1,000 hours of promotion. If each hour was to generate at least 10 pledges, that would = 10,000 more pledges!
Please "COMMENT HERE NOW" and "COMMIT YOURSELF" to spending just "1 HOUR A DAY" to help promote the money bomb! We WILL Raise $6,000,000 for Ron Paul! "REPOST THIS MESSAGE" to get others to commit to this!
