Actor Hugh Jackman announced Tuesday on his Twitter profile that he will donate $100,000 to one Twitterer's non-profit of choice if they can convince him of why in 140 character or less.

Doing the math, if you use all 140 characters, each letter is worth about $714.28. Choose your words wisely!

Tell Hugh why your non-profit deserves the money here: twitter.com/realhughjackman.

This is a great idea - but very challenging. Especially since you only get 123 characters (@realhughjackman plus a space takes of 17)! I put in my attempt for www.liveworkthrive.org

University of Texas television station, the only student-run FCC licensed tv station in the nation, needs funds for a digital transmitter. Without the transmitter the station will loose licence.
