facebook wants your bloodtype

facebook wants your bloodtypefrom tech.co.uk: An initiative in the US aimed at increasing blood transfusion stocks now allows Facebook to register their blood type and willingness to give blood. The scheme is the brainchild of Takes All Types (TAT), a non-profit organisation dedicated to creating the first national network for blood donation in the US. According to TAT there is plenty of blood and plenty of willing donators - the main problem is communication. By harnessing the power of social networking TAT hopes to overcome this and raise national stocks.
