I may not be the most tech savvy person out there but every once in a while a great new idea or platform comes along that is so simple, its brilliant. Crowdtilt is just that. So obviously, I had to share.

Crowdtilt is a new online platform that allows you to set up a campaign (whether it’s for a great cause or an office collection for a retirement gift). Once you enter the goal amount and campaign you simply tell your friends via email, Facebook, however you choose too. Once the campaign “tilts” everyone’s credit cards are charged and the money is deposited into your account.

Crowdtilt founders, James Beshara and Khaled Hussein, hope that Crowdtilt will eventually be used to change the world for the better, but until then they’re fine if you simply use it to go in for a group gift.

So the next time you are trying to rally a crew to support your cause, give Crowdtilt a try. An easy way to make a difference.
