Charity Bike Rider Promotes His Cause With YouTube and Digg

Pre-Internet, this might have been a three-paragraph story on page 48 of your local paper. But the Internet has given everyone the tools to reach for the stars, and that's exactly what Paul Sanchez (seen here on the Today Show) is doing.

Sanchez biked 10,000 miles solo, with only $750 and his gear, to raise awareness and funds for children with dyslexia and learning differences. His video of the trip is on YouTube. Now he's got eight wishes he wants to accomplish in 30 days - and none of them are simple. After you watch his video, he asks if you'll Digg the story because he thinks that could send him 100,000 views for the video. And one million views is one of his wishes. I have no idea what made him do it, but I hope he gets his wishes.
