작년에는 기부소식을 우연히 듣게되서 처음으로 5불 기부 했었는데..

올해는 메일을 보내 주셨네..해서 올해도 5불기부해 본다.^^;;

액수가 문제겠는가..맘이 중요하지..

다행이 페이팔에 묵혀 있는 몇천원의 달러가 있군. 쩝.

워낙 소액이여서 찾기도 뭐하고..그렇다고 묵히기도 뭐했는데..잘됐다.

Dear SoonHo,

Your donation kept Wikipedia on the web last year, and if it's okay with you, I'd like to ask you for another.
Click here to make a secure $5 donation right now. Google might have close to a million servers. Yahoo has something like 13,000 staff. We have 679 servers and 95 staff. Wikipedia is the #5 site on the web and serves 470 million different people every month – with billions of page views. Commerce is fine. Advertising is not evil. But it doesn't belong on Wikipedia. Wikipedia is something special. It is like a library or a public park. It is like a temple for the mind. It is a place we can all go to think, to learn, to share our knowledge with others. When I founded Wikipedia, I could have made it into a for-profit company with advertising banners, but I decided to do something different. We've worked hard over the years to keep it lean and tight. We fulfill our mission, and leave waste to others. If everyone reading this donated $5, we would only have to fundraise for one day a year. But not everyone can or will donate. And that's fine. Each year just enough people decide to give. This year, please consider making a donation of $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can to protect and sustain Wikipedia.

Thanks,
Jimmy Wales
Wikipedia Founder
