That's a pretty callous way to end a post, Alex. It's not either-or. If you really feel that way, ask for a refund. Donate the money to charity whether you get the refund or not.
- alexknowshtml 14y agoI donate regularly to donorschoose.org and organize a blood drive for the Philly tech scene 3-4x a year. I hope you've got a favorite cause, too :)
- diego 14y agoWell, I'm not the one with second thoughts about my payment to app.net. Still, it's a good chance to mention http://www.nothingbutnets.net/ http://www.nothingbutnets.net/
- alexknowshtml 14y agoSweet. Thanks for sharing.
- SoftwareMaven 14y agoThe two are orthogonal. App.net is not about charity. Bring that into the conversation is, IMO, trying to confuse the conversation.

- state 14y agoI had the same feeling the minute I completed my payment. I don't feel quite so negative but I feel very, very suspicious.
- alexknowshtml 14y agoI don't really feel negative, to be honest. Just noticing some things and wanting to point them out. From the comments so far, it seems I'm not alone in the things I've noticed.
- dasil003 14y agoIn retrospect?! LOL, we're burning through these internet fads faster and faster every day.
