Thanksya: Building your personal Blood Donor Network

How about building a personal blood donor network from your FB friends and Twitter followers? I think its a cool idea. Thats what my good friend Ramasubramanian Alwarsamy has come up with. The initiative thanksya.com is an entry for I save Life project by Mahindra.

Thanksya:

The idea is simple. You have lots of friends on Facebook and followers on Twitter, but you have no clue about their blood group. Now with the the help of Thanksya App, you can find their blood groups and thus you are creating a personal blood bank. Its a wonderful way of leveraging the powerful Social Media network.

I wish him all the very best for this wonderful initiative.
