Why give your shovel?
Because a hole on its own is pointless. But thousands of Glous digging and refilling together starts to look like something.
Today: we gather
For now, Glou et Glous is just a game. You join a team (GlouGlous or GlousGlou), you dig or you refill, and every shovelful counts.
There is no money involved: you pay nothing and you win nothing. We are simply gathering Glous.
Tomorrow: building sites for a good cause
Once there are enough of us, we will open building sites for the benefit of charities. We will look for sponsors: companies or people who will pay a sum for every click earned during a given period.
Our shovelfuls will then go to the charity: the more we click together during the site, the more it will receive.
Why it could work
Every click is tiny, but thousands of clicks together weigh a lot. The idea is to turn an absurd, free gesture into a helping hand for a charity.
What is promised (and what is not)
Nothing is promised until it is announced. No site will start without us clearly announcing here the charity, the sponsor, the duration and the sum paid per click. If nothing is announced, nothing is under way.
To keep it fair
Each player is limited to 1,000 shovelfuls a day, and robots are refused: everyone takes part on equal terms.
And you, what do you do?
Create your account (by email or with Google), join your team and give your first shovelfuls. The more of us there are, the more ambitious the sites can be.
