- ivankirigin 18y agoThere really isn't an established micropayments player, and there isn't really an established social giving engine. Both are innovations in Tipjoy.
- ivankirigin 18y agoOhh yeah, you can also make the donation from SMS if you have twitter hooked up. That's kind of a big deal. Think of a rally.
- aneesh 18y agoI hadn't heard of either of those sites. To be honest, I didn't know of an efficient way to give <$10 to non-profits without half of it going to overhead costs. This makes it super easy for me to give small amounts, with the added social features. Most non-profits I know that raise <$10 amounts from lots of people do it in person with cash. If it works, this could give them more options. So for me, it could actually change non-profit fundraising.
