selling my twitter 10K tweet for a good cause
3 Comments Published February 7th, 2008 in LIFT, co-creation, crossmedia, effectiviteit, hype, ondernemen, scoble.Today i mentioned on twitter that i was thinking of selling my 10.000th tweet on twitter for a good cause. 5 minutes later i saw that my friend Yuri van Geest was sitting within 20 feet of Robert Scoble at the LIFT conference. I pitched the idea to Robert and he replied let’s talk. he thought i was at LIFT as well. Unfortunately i am not there but as Yuri is i connected them. Now let’s see if and how this puppy is going to fly!

Robert Scoble and son
I will start an account on an auction site and let’s see what happens. Want to help? Please connect to this posting and send in you suggestions in the comments! You can mail me as well at: markdekock at match2knowledge dot nl
Update: The account with Ebay has been set up and auction has started.
Here you can find my “twitter auction item“
The money collected(crossed fingers here) will be donated in two parts. 50% will be donated to the dutch KWF cancer fund. The second 50% will be donated to a prespecified charity named by the sponsor. If any costs need to be made for this transfer i will try and provide the budget.
A first bid has been made: 100 euro’s!!
Already 142,50 euro!
