Poll: Asking for donations = tacky?

Tacky to place a ChipIn widget on your blog asking for donations?

  1. It's a great idea. Give readers a way to give back to the blog.

  2. Only if it's for charity or similar cause. Don't ask people to chip in for your new house.

  3. What a terrible idea. Stop begging.

    What's your opinion on asking for donations with a widget on your blog, via ChipIn or any other form?

    My Opinion - I think it is OK if you are not using AdSense or other advertising to generate revenue

    I don't really like it. But if your not using adsense then go for it. But i can't see how it would work. Like a very low conversion rate. So i would just use other programs.

    Unless you get some millionaire who likes your site lol and throws thousands of dollars your way.
