A website called Charity Swear Box have teamed up with Twitter to start an unusual way of giving, by putting money into an on-line swear box! This donation based web site allows Twitter users to pay up for use of bad language. This app requires the user to sign on with their twitter details allowing the app to detect all the users recently tweeted swearwords and suggest a donation related to the number of outbursts recorded. In addition the user can also submit an amount they'd like to be charged per swearword.
The app allows the user to choose which charity they'd like to donate to (all donations are submitted via Pay Pal), the charities they support are:
- CAMBA
- Feed the Children
- Peta
- Family Care Foundation (FCF)
- World Wildlife Fund (WWF)
- Childline (NSPCC)
- Unicef
The app also allows the user to post an app right there and then using as many swearwords as they wish, all in the name of Charity!
