UK's Pledgebank pulls US commitment - and cash

The recent trip by Tom Steinberg to the US to promote mySociety online tools for individual community organising is starting to pay off with burgeoning interest in Pledgebank. This simple yet powerful tool enables people to tell the world "I'll do it, but only if you'll help me do it". US pledges already successfully completed include actions ranging from boycotting burger stores, to reclaiming New Orleans archives and returning unsolicited mail. The UK campaign to start a digital rights group is only 161 signatures short of the 1000 target.
Pledgebank US appealed so much to Chris Andersonthat he has pledged to give $1000 "to the person with the best eyepopping pledge idea offered here by the end of October, provided more than 5 people contribute an idea." So far 22 comments and growing.
