The Make Something Happen Blog, from the Point

Alex Steed is the blogger at Make Something Happen Blog, the blog of the Point.  Alex is doing interviews, articles, and roundups.   I was just interviewed!

From The Point's About page:

The Point is a website for organizing group actions.  The Point can be used for:

  • Activism: Advocating an issue on The Point is different from organizing a traditional petition or boycott -- on The Point, no one acts until enough people agree to take action to force a solution to the problem.
  • Fundraising: Unlike traditional fundraisers, on The Point, no one parts with a dime until enough people pledge funds to reach the tipping point.
  • Creating a Social Contract: Some group activities require safety in numbers to be worthwhile. The Point lets you form a contract with your peers that no one is obligated to uphold until the tipping point is reached.

I haven't had time to explore it - anyone else?  Your thoughts?
