Title: Message Free Software projects to add Bitcoin Donate buttons Post by: genjix on October 22, 2010, 06:35:22 AM Hey,
Right now I'm working full time on a Bitcoin app and haven't got the time to do this. But it just occured to me that if you message a lot of free software projects then they would likely add one. Especially if you gave them a bitcoin icon or premade button. Then someone could make a topic here of a list of projects accepting donations. Good way to promote bitcoin.

Maybe we should write a simple-as-possible-and-no-simpler explanation letter, promise a few coins (like 10 or something) and promise to add their site to a list (in a thread? on a subpage or the trade page?) So, there are two separate tasks I think. Write a letter and compile a list of people to mass mail it too.

(if you want to talk about it) Title: Re: Message Free Software projects to add Bitcoin Donate buttons Post by: grondilu on October 22, 2010, 01:49:35 PM I've done that on my prefered linux distribution forum : aptosid.
http://www.aptosid.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=219 I even proposed to buy the bitcoins they would collect. All I got was a polite decline. Edit: well, I've just insisted a bit, though. Title: Re: Message Free Software projects to add Bitcoin Donate buttons Post by: doublec on October 23, 2010, 10:14:58 AM All I got was a polite decline. I don't think their decline is so polite anymore :) |
