Welcome to the 20millionjobs blog!

We are the grassroots non-partisan entrepreneurial campaign to create 20 million jobs in 20 months. Obviously, we have our work cut-out for us, to say the least.

When you have a long road ahead of you, it's always nice to get a bit of encouragement. Here's the short story of one such boost we experienced recently:

Live Long And Prosper!

Last Saturday, as we were checking our new 20millionjobs Twitter feed, we saw this thoughtful tweet from Leonard Nimoy:

To which we responded with three tweets, one of which was:

Then Leonard graciously shared our goal with his friends:

Thanks for the retweet, Mr. Spock!

You helped to start a much needed conversation among your Twitter followers. And with just one humble Vulcan thumb click, you doubled our subscribers!

Several dozen people immediately retweeted our Saturday afternoon 20millionjobs campaign message to Mr. Nimoy. That's how good ideas move forward.

We still have a long (fun) way to go.
