Quick, Easy Help for Haiti

The U.S. Dept. of State blog has a number of ways you can help Haiti today/tonight/tomorrow. I just did the following and it was quick and a piece of cake:

For those interesting in helping immediately, simply text "HAITI" to "90999" and a donation of $10 will be given automatically to the Red Cross to help with relief efforts, charged to your cell phone bill.
