Donations.... maybe?
Update:
Shuushuu has grown substantially over the past year and has been moved to a new server with high bandwidth capacity to accommodate the increased usage. Unfortunately, this new server is also quite expensive. >_<
Server costs for shuushuu have risen from $130 to about $200/mo. While in the past I haven't made much of a deal of donating, it has become quite expensive to operate shuushuu.
Donations haven't quite kept up with the increased costs >_< For example, in November '08, there were no donations All server costs fall directly to me in that case.
I would like to remind users that, if they are able, even a small donation helps as they can quickly add up from our strong fan base Just click the donate link on the main page to send a Paypal donation. If users have ideas on how to raise donations, please let me know.
P.S. I have considered doing a donation drive to try to raise server/bandwidth money for the entire year and be done with it. Kinda like Wikipedia's Fund Drive. Any thoughts on this?
