I vaguely remember talk of having an iphone/android app that allowed you to quickly donate a little bit to SI/MIRI (/CFAR as well now) any time you had the urge to purchase fuzzies. This seems like a great way to get into the habit as well. Anyone know if it has it been implemented?

We looked into the the thing that would let people donate to MIRI by sending a text message to a certain number, but it was prohibitively expensive.
