Pay a Blogger Nov 29 By Asha
Sweden based Flattr is the world’s first social micro-payment system. It specializes in providing the facility to send small amounts of money - as less as .01 of a Euro. This is ideally suited for companies which want to raise small amounts from a very large number of people.
When you're registered to flattr, you pay a small monthly fee. You set the amount yourself. At the end of the month, that fee is divided between all the things you flattered. You're always logged in to the account. That means that giving someone some flattr-love is just a button away.
Flattr has come up with an innovate idea to promote its service. It has launched a ‘Pay a Blogger Day on Nov 29’
“ Blogs are something that we read almost daily but how often do we step back and think about the time and effort that goes into writing an enjoyable, informative and entertaining post? Day after day, week after week, and keep the enthusiasm that writing brings the author?
Pay a Blogger Day is our effort to put the bloggers in the spotlight to recognize the value they bring to the internet. Not to mention our own daily web “consumption”. Most of the Flattr team members are (or have been) bloggers ourselves so we know what’s involved and on 29th of November we will give a round of applause to our favorite bloggers and get our wallets out to buy them a coffee / beer / that new cool iPhone app :) “ (11/25/2011) |
