We did it! $100,000 raised! (UPDATE: Now at $175,000)

Color me shocked. Seriously. We began the day yesterday with $50,000 raised and NewsFire unlocked, and less than 36 hours later... we've broken the $100,000 plateau.

If you think about how much a hundred bucks can do for an organization like The Hunger Project, or Save the Children, or United Way, or any of the charities involved, $100,000 is truly something huge. Something life changing for many people. And it's all thanks to you.

So without further ado... we have a message from two hyperactive critters:

THANK YOU!
