For example, on my website, http://heavensentgaming.com/ I have a few small notices for accepting donations via Bitcoin.

I'm a huge supporter of cryptocurrancies, especially P2P ones, like the Bitcoin darling. But; I hate shoving ads down people's throats. It's uncouth.

I don't mind it so much when it's not targeted at a particular individual, no privacy issues that way. However, web-ads have gotten out of control. With their cookies, tracking software, and the selling of information to third parties. But, I also don't like asking for donations every few pixels across a website either.

I'm scaling back a lot of that stuff around my site. And, as a website administrator, I wonder what other people's opinions are of ads and tracking in general.

And, in terms of economy, what how would someone respond to seeing a bitcoin donation button? Even well trafficed sites, like The Pirate Bay recieve very little Bitcoin donations for their traffic; but some musicians and webcomics recieve a decent amount from Bitcoin donations; and then sites like Wikileaks recieve LARGE donations.

I recently saw that Flattr had added Bitcoin, pretty darn awesome.

I do freelance webdesign, so I've set it up Flattr for a few clients. I don't know why I haven't gotten around to setting it up on my own website though lol. Thanks for giving this moron a idea!  Cheesy
