    how generous are you as webmaster? do you donate to sites like wikipedia or other charity sites? :p

    i saw this burma cylone relief donation from google. Just thinking about giving $10 to them. Not much but i think that might help somebody :)

    the last time i donated was for the Tsunami disaster. 1k to it, and now with the Myanmar cyclone, I am going to make another donation.

    In these events, any bit will help.

    I regularly donate money to open source projects I like, mostly small amounts like 20$ or so.

    No, I do not, but I'm not a parasite - I do not use AdBlock, since I know that webhosting, domains and staff cost money/time.

    I usually reserve around 1% of my income to make donations, being it to great services I use online or to some organizations.

    why wouldnt many people eventhough they have lots of money ($10k+) still hesitate to come forward in donating for a good cause? and of course! it is upto the person who donates, but why still many people are not generous?

    I donate to Glype.com, the person who programs this free script that I use. But he wants British pounds. So it is really expensive to donate.
