Carey, who is on Twitter with the handle "DrewFromTV," offered $100,000 for the Twitter name "@drew," which is was offered for sale by Drew Olanoff, of "Blame Drew's Cancer," who was willing to auction off his Twitter handle to raise money for cancer research.
Drew Carey upped his bid for the Twitter name @drew to $1 million, announcing that he would pay $1 million for the account if he could get a million Twitter followers by 2010.
Here's the Million Drew Web Site where you can follow @drewfromTV. It looks like they are using some tracking application. Drew tweeted it this morning. Who wouldn't take 3 seconds to do this simple click action.

I love to see philanthropy done in this way. For those that wonder if Twitter is a fad or if it can make a difference, this is the article that shows it.
At my work, we support LIVESTRONG. It's a phenomenal organization!
