I and a few others loved the search-to-donate idea when we were at Looksmart a few years ago. Still do, in fact, but we couldn't get the team excited about it. For me personally, I think the mostly-extremely-positive experience I had with action-for-charity at Zeal (using thehungersite) is what drives my enthusiasm for the idea. Finally, there seem to be some alternatives: charity cafe, goodsearch, theenvironmentsite.org, though some efforts (e.g., Ask Jeeves' Katrina support site) seem to have gone offline already. It's a bummer that it's hard to tell what the efficiency of these charitable organizations is.
