Pledge Bank website
mySociety (of TheyWorkForYou.com and WriteToThem.com) are testing a pledge bank website.
Here is an example of a current pledge: “I will write to my MP asking for free Wireless Internet access in the British Library but only if 20 other people will pledge to write to their MP to ask for it too. (48 days left), 7 more needed”
CORRECTION 19 May 05
mySociety do not publish TheyWorkForYou.com. They do produce NotApathetic.com.
UPDATE 4 June 2055
PledgeBank.com will be publicly launched on 13 June with a set of special launch day pledges.

Thanks for the coverage, but please note that TheyWorkForYou.com is not a mySociety project.

Thanks for the correction. Do you have a list of mySociety projects? That would be useful.

Reply from Tom Steinberg:
Hi Simon,
Thanks for writing - these are our core projects:
www.mysociety.org/projects.php
Around the edge we seem to have sprouted:
www.ivotedforyoubecause.com
www.downingstreetsays.com
www.thegovernmentsays.com
The status of those last three are all up in the air whilst we do some dull discussions about branding, though :)
best,
Tom
