Making a Difference with SocialVibe

Posted by on 29 September 2008

Mashable recently gave a great review of the online network SocialVibe which allows users to build sponsored widgets that give back to various charities. What's great about this tool is that creating the widget is fairly simple, and SocialVibe does all the work in inserting your widget in existing profiles on Facebook and Myspace.

Since its launch six months ago, it has already generated over $120,000 for charities that they support. SocialVibe users don't donate the money themselves or spam their friends, they just simply display the widget on the profile pages and click-throughs generate sponsored donations. Companies like Adobe, Apple, the NBA, and the UFC are among the sponsors involved.
