Free and Easy Charity

Here's the deal: Big Think is running a charitable donation program for everybody's favorite educational charity, DonorsChoose, and they've gotten Pfizer to agree to donate $1 for each of the first 10,000 visitors to vote for a video on Big Think's site.

Go to http://www.bigthink.com/thinksciencenow/, pick a video, and click on "Vote for This Video Profile," and Pfizer coughs up a buck. You don't even need to watch the video, if you don't want to.

It's simple, it's easy, and it steers money to a good cause. What more could you ask?
