Good question.

So back in April, I was running out of cash after an advertiser bailed on a payment. I appealed to our members to chip in and become Micropatrons a la Kottke.org, and they sent me $1200 in 10s and 20s in about 48 hours. I was stunned. That's also when I realized that I had something that some people were really jazzed about.

I wrote my "story" out here for that effort: http://www.windycitizen.com/sponsors/micropatron If you're bored at work, give it a look and tell me if you think it's interesting or not.
