The 6 degree challenge site is quite a good idea. The fact that it says 'tell 6 friends and change the world' makes it kinda like one of those emails you get that say send this to 10 people or such a thing happens (usually something stupid like 'you will die'). Although these do annoy the hell out of me, people always seem to send them. Ours could be send this to so many people, to create awareness, and you'll get something, a prize or something, nothing lame though. I agree Cath, we've got to think of a way to engage the target audience and get them interested straight away.


Here are some sites I found that are trying to make enery saving fun... not too sure if they're succeeding though, but take a look.
