You’ve probably heard about crowdfunding and crowdraising platforms like Kickstarter and Crowdrise. Thunderclap is a new tool, but it’s not about raising money, it’s about raising voices.

Thunderclap works like this: you create a single message that you’d like your supporters to share via Facebook or Twitter at the exact same time. Your fans can ‘pledge’ to support this campaign through Thunderclap’s website, and Thunderclap will automatically schedule your message to be sent out through the social networking accounts of all your supporters, simultaneously. That’s sure to get people’s attention!
