widget NewsUsing a MySpace widget, followers of the American “Idol Gives Back” fundraiser can continue donating to the drive, as well as enter a sweepstakes featuring a trip for 2 to the show’s finale and post-show party.

Although the show aired last night, the widget prolongs the ability to donate, and, as of this writing, has accounted for more than $40,000 USD in donations from MySpace members.
