The moment the Olympic Flame was passed to the first Torchbearer for the commencement of the Vancouver 2010 Torch Relay, a new Facebook application was launched: Pass the Flame!

During the coverage of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Torch Relay, Community-online.com is enabling Facebook members to share the values of peace, brotherhood and friendship.

Every day - from October 22nd to February 12th (Olympic Torch Relay) and from March 3rd to March 12th (Paralympic Torch Relay) - you can "Pass the Flame" to your Facebook friends. Each time you Pass the Flame, it will be like running with the Torch for 300 meters (like the actual Torch Relay).

Why did we create this Facebook application? Couple of reasons (in the order that we list them below):

1) To enable people from all over the world to share the values of peace, brotherhood, and friendship with their friends and family.

2) To use the power of social media and viral marketing to promote TorchRelay.net - the first site that enables Olympic and Paralympic Torchbearers and Fans to share their Torch Relay experience.
