Alarm bells start ringing in my head whenever I see a "bandwagon" pattern. I always think to myself, is the popularity warranted here and I think the answer here is a resounding "no." The ratio of information provided to money donated is waaay to low and to me this indicates that people don't have a great idea of what they are donating to. Then again maybe there is very little harm since most people are donating very little money. If they raise 500,000 dollars that would be a truly remarkable outcome that I did not expect.
- jacquesm 16y agoYes, the bandwagon pattern is very scary, but then again, it was the bandwagon effect that made facebook in what it is, I think that the frustration with facebook is what is driving it and that would almost have to follow the same pattern. The harm will be if they fail. Even if they ship something in the next 6 months I'll be really impressed.
