I helped create http://TweetForHabitat.com a site created for the purpose of raising $70,000 to build a house for a family in the in the Memphis area. Along with the website launched a Twitter campaign where any tweet containing #Tweet4Habitat was counted and sponsors donated based on the number of tweets. Lastly we've found restaurants and bars in the Memphis area to host TweetUps for Tweet For Habitat to allow those who don't feel comfortable giving money online a place to drop some cash into the bin we had setup.

This is an on-going effort to raise the $70,000 for the Habitat for Humanity of Greater Memphis.

Purple Ant is a small company and was on the upswing of adding employees when the economy crashed almost 2 years ago. We've since closed our offices and now work out of our house, but still are working on our commercial products we eventually plan to sell, as well as supporting our consulting clients.
