It's approaching the end of the quarter... and you guys haven't hurt my wallet badly enough.
My pledge to be 10% of the overall donations to hubski this year is too easy.
You've got that tax return coming. You didn't buy that super-venti caramel macchiato. A friend bought you a round on Friday night... with that in mind, consider throwing a couple of bucks at hubski.com
If you enjoy the content, the people, the atmosphere... if you like to just lurk.
If you're only here for the weekly pubski...
please consider a donation. This site takes money to run. It's been up and running for 1926 days and all of the server fees, travels, stickers, etc. have come out of personal pockets.
And that says nothing about the time and talents of the developers. Countless hours of genius burned into this labor of love.
I'm not a member of the core hubski team - but I'm a member of this community, and as such, I care deeply about them, their families, and their time. And I care about YOU and the content you share and the voice that you have.
Their goal of $2400 isn't astronomical. That's 20 people chucking a $10 bill at them. Look at the last bar tab you have. Look at the last time you bought a burrito, burger or pizza. I'd wager it's near or over $10.
So today - I packed my lunch and save that $8-10. Tomorrow, please consider doing the same. And once a month... throw a couple bucks at hubski.
It feels good.
Hubski- better than pizza I haven't donated yet, thanks for the reminder. I'll have it raining singles on Hubski like a freeway toll both in Las Vegas. Also, thenewgreen and mk, have you considered a monthly donation/subscription-y automatic-y option for people to allocate however much they may like to the site from their credit cards? 2 bucks a month from 10 people and youre 10% of the way to your goal.
I have, but thenewgreen thinks it's too corporate.Also, thenewgreen and mk, have you considered a monthly donation/subscription-y automatic-y option for people to allocate however much they may like to the site from their credit cards?
Hahahahahah! Anyone that knows me on this website should know right away that this comment smells fishy. I'm a huge, huge YOOGE proponent of us having recurrent monthly billing set up. Please make it happen, I think we would see a dramatic increase in support. I do it for NPR
And what a damn shame that is. nowaypablo Quatrarius, you hip to the Headroom?(most hubski users just said "Max Who?")
I got there the long way round (interest in Pirate radio > signal hijacking > this guy), but it still counts.
All joking aside - I love the idea too. I know this has been discussed... but I think aside from thenewgreen thinking it is too corporate... The current system allows for hubski to not actually handle/store the credit card info. It is securely passed through hubski to the payment processor. If hubski STORES your credit card info - they then have to pass PCI audits and blah blah blah security blah responsibility blah hacking blah etc. I think the powers that be are talking about it... but it's not a thing yet. hopefully some day.
Thanks for reminding me. I feel kind of guilty given the amount of stickers I've received. And now perhaps mk can finally have that beer.
