Whew! The Twitterverse has been exploding with malaria (not in a bad way) and many people have pledged to donate mosquito nets to fight malaria in Africa. That includes hundreds of tweets commiting to a single net donation to Malaria No More (thank you!!) and some very generous pledges from others.

Take a look below for a quick synopsis of what’s been going on:

• Ashton Kutcher—he who started all this excitement—and his wife Demi Moore pledged 10,000 nets to Malaria No More. Ashton threw down with this online video challenge to CNN.
• CNN took up the challenge and pledged to match Ashton’s gift of 10,000 nets
• Oprah joined the action with one of her first Tweets in a message to Demi: “@mrskutcher count me in for 20 thousand nets”
• Ryan Seacrest made his mark on Twitter: “just spoke to larry king @CNNbrk is donating 10,000 mosquito nets. i will too”
• Electronic Arts sweetened the deal by promising 5,000 mosquito nets in the name of the person who put Ashton over the million mark

Incredible! And who knows how much further we can go? Make your mark by raising awareness on Twitter for World Malaria Day and April 25th! Thanks for your support!
