Deciding on an approach to funding is a critical task. Should you fund programs or provide operating support? Invest in established organizations or experiment with start-ups? The answers to such questions constitute a company’s brand identity; in philanthropy, one must consider where the soul meets the business plan.
Such was the reasoning behind the Create Your Own Legacy materials produced by 21/64, a group many of us are familiar with for launching the annual Slingshot 50.
Now, understanding the accelerating move to mobile, they have released an iPhone application, a companion piece to the printed deck of images – designed for users to search the image database, tag chosen images with keywords and notes, and send their choices to others.

Picture Your Legacy for iPhone and iPod Touch is available from iTunes.

How much did they waste on that? I’m sure some rich geezer is riding the subway thinking, “Hmmm, I should plan out my legacy right here and now amidst all these people..” But he isn’t on the train, he’s in a limo and doesnt take the train. And he isn’t looking at his iPhone because he doesn’t own one, and even if he did would he be using this application?
