I have absolutely no idea how much it costs to keep Hubski running. It would be interesting to find out more about the expenses and goals. I'd give money NPR style. I don't want to see an add when I'm browsing but I'd let a video run when I logged in. I'd rather just give money.

A membership fee would chase away many new members. It's impact would mostly be on the youth and those who don't have a pot to pass in. Many people urge new members to lurk but I worry a fee would incentives less initial lurking.

The extras model is fine, I'd pay it, but only to support the site.
