The positive power of the internet <3

Over the past few weeks I have been keeping track of this online project -> http://www.youtube.com/chartjackersproject

Run by British YouTube sensation Charlieissocoollike as well as others, the aim of the project was to create a single using the power of the internet and get it into the UK Charts.

Today the single was released into the big wide world in aid of Children In Need. And I, for one, think it’s a pretty amazing achievement. Not least the video, which you can see below, that is made up from contributions from all’n'sundry across the world.

Not only is it for a good cause and means that these guys have managed to pull off such a big challenge but it also, as Charlie has so rightly pointed out over and over, a great example of what can be achieved with the internet and by young people.

The single is out this week and costs 79p on itunes, you can get it HERE. I have just bought it, because I am really quite impressed by the whole thing.
