this widget is one of mine...
Very pleased how it turned out - although I have to say it did take me the whole day to do it.... If you try to add it to your Facebook it creates a little application which can sit on your profile page...
I used Clearspring.com a nice tool for promoting content on most popular social networks - Facebook, del.icio.us, Technocrati, Blogger, etc...
There is only one thing that is really annoying - when I widgetised my action-animation, it only works with US keyboard - what I mean is - @ is on shift+2 instead on Shift + as is normal on the UK keyboard.
When I used Widgetbox I didn't have this problem @ was where it should be. However, Widgetbox embed options are fairly geeky (for blogs and not most popular bookmarking sites) so not really good for wide promotion...

Greenpeace's Airplot microsite
I just received a brilliant email from Greenpeace updating me on the latest developments around the plot of land they bought near Heathrow.
I signed up to be their beneficiary owner.
I received couple of emails. So it looked like beneficiary owner=signup tp Greenpeace's email.
But now they launched this brilliant website
http://www.airplot.org.uk/index.html
The reason I like it is because it uses the online tools really well:
1) sign-up to email
2) counter to show the build-up of support
3) Google map to show where the plot is and show other markers -like boundaries
4) video to update visitors
What I like about all this is that it shows that a campaign can be developed online as it happens - the main thing is to collect email addresses of interested supporters so you can take them on the journey as the campaign develops...
It's brilliant that Q&A has only been developed now - If GP waited for this document to be produced they would probably lose great number of sign-ups...
Obviously, this is not something that can be done if there isn't a clear urgency/topical appeal to the campaign. In that case anything that will motivate/persuade people is important...
