Gee, I wonder what they'll use this list for??????

Let's see, how about we make a list of say, 50,000 UW alumni, and fill their facebook and twitter accounts with whatever propaganda we want? And just in time for the 2012 elections. Let me go out on a limb and suggest that Will Hsu won't be voting Republican anytime soon. Just like in Jason Mattera's shocking book, Obama Zombies, this is just another way the left uses social media to clobber us. Wonder where the $50,000 is coming from? Those of us with Badgers in the family may want to have them sign up for this so they can keep tabs on it.

Donors Pledge $1 for Each New Friend, Follower of Wisconsin-Madison

Donors who believe in social media have pledged $1 for each person (up to $50,000) who either friends the University of Wisconsin at Madison or its alumni association on Facebook, or who becomes a Twitter follower. Will Hsu, who graduated from UW-Madison in 2000 and is one of the donors, said that he views social media as "a powerful way for younger alums and current students to get connected and stay connected with the university.”
