I thank you and the kitties will thank you ALL.

GoodSearch is a free way to help a charitable cause of your choice (in this case, my cat rescue, One by one)

I try to use it every day. :)

Great job everyone! We are up to $2.67. Keep up the good work.

What are you GoodSearching (http://www.goodsearch.com/) for? I'm off to find a recipe for microwaveable peanut brittle...

We're up to $3.76. We can do better than that!

Yesterday I searched for something called a germ guardian to see if it would help me with my mold alergies. Then I searched for David Beckham because, believe it or not, I had never heard of him and wondered what all the fuss was about.

GoodSearch doesn't cost you a thing. What are you GoodSearching for?

Woohoo! I've been using Good Search everyday and have told others about it.


Please, no one else make the mistake I had by clearing out your cookies. I accidently searched without having One by One selected so my search went to no one! Make sure you've got One by One selected!

You guys rock! Keep up the good work -- and keep on GoodSearching for One by One.
Here is some information about the founders of GoodSearch that I thought you might find interesting.

A few years ago, brother and sister Ken and JJ Ramberg had a vision to create a company which would make supporting charitable organizations an effortless, cost-free daily activity that did not take time out of people's busy schedules. GoodSearch was created when they considered what even a fraction of the billions of dollars generated by search engines annually could do if it were directed towards good causes.

With extensive Internet and philanthropic experience, Ken and JJ have created a site that will help redirect considerable amounts of search engine advertising dollars to the betterment of society. They have been inspired to take corporate responsibility to the next level by allowing users to decide where their search revenue should go.

We should do this every month with a different charity. I've had lots of fun with it.

Imagine how much money they'd get even if we just made it our homepage and searched "catoftheday" every day... :p
