So how is this different from Flattr (http://flattr.com/ http://flattr.com/), apart from recurring instead of one-time payments?

  Start here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4239247 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4239247 The update is that I hung out with Flattr's bizdev, @gaiapunk, at #xoxofest, and we had a great time. I love the spirit and vision behind Flattr. IMO their hands are tied because they're a traditional pound-of-flesh business. Gittip is funded on Gittip.

  Flattr is neat, but it seems more geared towards content. I sometimes see a project page with a Flattr button and that just looks stupid. I think you need a lot of Flattr'able content. Like blog-posts for example. For open source projects, maybe one solution could be to have a flattr button on each git push, or each small release..
