Blogathon — drum up sponsors, pick a charity (like the EFF!) and post a blog entry every 30 minutes to raise cash for the charity of your choice. No fair writing 48 entries in advance and using a python script and the Blogger API to auto-post!
Remember when you were in school and you would bowl for charity? And for every pin you knocked down you got, say, ten cents? Well a Blogathon is an event for charity that lasts 24 hours. Each participant finds sponsors who can either donate a flat amount for the entire event, or an amount per hour. Once you sign up, you blog for 24 hours on the day of the event and raise money for charity.
(Thanks, Kevin!)
