Wouldn't it be great to actually get something for the hours you spend online? After all, it seems that everything has us surfing the world wide web every day, whether it be our jobs, checking email, keeping up with friends, or shopping. It seems like everyone has at least one computer at home, if not more, and most cellphones anymore are connected to the internet. If only we were able to harness that power to help our communities. After all, there is only so many hours in the day, and although we all want to do our part to make the world a better place, sometimes time just doesn't seem to permit it.
