Facebook Donates $1 per Status Update to Haiti? NOPE.
I've seen many facebook friends with this as their status in the past few days:
PLEASE NOTE that this status is being tracked, the owners of facebook have confirmed they will send $1 to the rescue fund for the Haiti earthquake disaster for everytime this is cut and pasted as a status. You only have to leave it for a minimum of 1 hour. Lets all do our bit to help.
While it would be nice, it's not happening.
