tipjoy is pretty neat. I have it on one of my smaller blogs that I own and it's got me a few payments. Biggest problem is the fact that someone tips the minimum 10 cents but 90% of people do not actually follow through. Of course, it's just in its early stages so good job so far

About 30% of pledged tips have been paid - but these numbers are really early. We haven't prodded tippers too much yet, but we're about to start subtly pushing them towards payment.
