That's a wonderful thing to do. Geeze, I didn't realize someone like him would be loaded enough to donate a million.

Could someone create a bot that created twitter accounts (maybe going through Tor to hide originating IP address) and maybe a billion followers?

Twitter could make it happen in no time by putting @drew on the suggested user list.

Shira doesn't work for CBS News. She's a blogger who does some stuff for cbsnews.com A very big difference. Still a good story. Hope @drew gets lots of money.

Very interesting and, of course, with it being for a great cause, you can't go wrong! Sounds like this may be "the new thing"!

this is where Twitter can make money.... followers for one dollar a piece... as people have been recommending twitter should charge 1$ per new follower for celebrities, tv channels (possibly the Prize is right is paying him????), companies and so forth....

I think Drew is very cheap offering only 1dollar per new follower and he's considering it donation as opposed to just buying followers.... Donations would be 5-10dollars per new follower....

Drew, D.O., I got two words for you. "Brill," and "Yent."
D.C., You're not so shabby either! PS... Your predecessor is the reason my mom changed my hard to pronounce korean name to "Bob." Many years of success to you!

Exactly, usernames will be swapped. My tweets and followers stay in place. Notice how you can change your username at any time? ;)

His bid is currently $25k for @drew It jumps to $100k if he gets 100k followers by auction end (Nov 9.) The million is icing. and heart

the logistics have been worked out w/ Twitter. Drew Carey (or, another rich and famous Drew) will simply get the @drew name for their account, and Olanoff will move to a new name with his current followers.
