Twitter backs wine sales to help kids read

I'm not a fan of Twitter, but this, I think, could be a good thing.

"The popular micro-blogging service is partnering in a unique fund raising drive with Room to Read, a San Francisco non-profit organization that establishes schools and libraries for children in developing countries in Asia and Africa. According to its Web site, Room to Read has established 765 schools and filled 7,168 bilingual libraries with more than 5.7 million books since it was founded in 2000."
