Social Actions Labs Launches Idea Wiki

Social Actions Labs is where we'll be building applications this summer that combine 19 social change and fund raising platforms like Care2, Change.org, and Kiva.org -- and present their actionable opportunities in highly useful & innovative ways.

We just started a wiki and are inviting the community to contribute their ideas for web applications and mash ups!

Imagine a Wordpress add-on that recommends actions based on the content of the post.
Imagine a Firefox Extension that alerts you to relevant social actions as you browsed the web.
Imagine a widget that lists actions that have nearly reached their goal -- only a few extra signatures or donations needed.

We want your ideas for connecting people to social actions. We'll be building 3-5 web applications this summer -- and will be choosing the community's most rock star ideas to take to the next level.

Check out the Social Actions Labs Wiki to see the 20+ ideas so far contributed by Beth Kanter, Amy Sample Ward, Tom Watson, and others.

Thanks for sharing!
