I am, but not sure if he is still up or not. Whats up?

Not sure if you saw my post a couple minutes ago, but we need to have a reminder email sent out through the RonPaulForums and BlackThisOut.com email lists before 8:00 AM, which is when donations usually start spiking. I would say 7:00 AM is a good time to send it out, that way people will see the email as soon as they wake up. It could help give us a huge boost early in the morning.

I completely agree. This would be great!

I'm not sure what you guys are planning to do throughout the day but I think an early morning email plus 2 short updates/reminders would be great. Just my two cents :)

Will is next to me working on the letter. We'll program it to send out at 7:00-8:00 and I'll forward it to Josh.

Basically, we are thinking to encourage everyone to forward off the letter mentioned earlier in this thread to every news media source we can think of. I'll have the new page up here shortly, so you can get an idea of what we are thinking.

When you email the reminder to donate I think you should also encourage people to keep promoting the event and spreading the word. Keep people inviting their friend lists on FB to get the word out to more and more.
 
I have a few tiny suggestions for the BTO Site.

Is there a way to add a ticker somewhere prominent on the site?

Should the button wording be changed to "donate", "donate now," or "donate to the official campaign?" Right now it says "pledge to donate."

Lastly, is there a way to make it abundantly clear that the day is today? The text "The Day Has Arrived..." is much smaller than the other more prominent/flashy text. I'm worried if people are seeing this site for the first time they may miss that it's today. Would likely only be a few small number of people, but every bit counts :)
