Abstract: System and method for collaborative defining of, voting on, and funding of events. An administrator sets up a system (1) which allows users to first define voting options (2,3) and then to vote on and donate for an option (4,5). As soon as the necessary funds for carrying out an option are available, the voting process is terminated and users are informed of the results (6, 7). Users interact with the system through different communication channels, like POTS (plain old telephone service), IM (instant messaging), WWW (world-wide web), and mobile devices.
