I agree. Besides, we can give lots to charity.

Yeesh, it smells like some bigwig executive's office in here. ^_^ I think that this might be a good idea in the future, once Dan 3.0 starts and we see how it's going. If it's going more in the "Let's get Dan to help improve the world!" direction, than this sounds plausible, but if it's going in the more "Wooohooo let's make Dan skydive for teh lulz!!!!!11!!!" direction than probably not. ^_^

^_^ Thanks for the unnecessary cheesy quote about one of the insignificant details of the post Asher! <3

First, Dan makes money from advertisements. Second, we can't claim that we are doing any work which would qualify us as a not for profit. Sponsor a child, and feed the hungry projects aren't going to convince the gov. unless those become the purpose of SPOTM. Third, I don't see anyone donating cash to a bunch of teenagers on a message board, even if the threads say we are going to cure cancer. Fourth, if the project is worth while we can create fund raisers internally. In fact I like my idea so much I have created this Google group for cash strapped projects: groups.google.com/group/spare-some-change?msg=new&lnk=gcisIf your project is absolutely awesome but lacks funds, go on there and bitc# and we will figure out how to pay for it together. However, collecting money to give to charity is lame. Billions of dollars have gone that way and any meager funds we can acquire will make no difference there.

This idea does have issues, but thats not to say it's impossible. In fact, all we need to do is DEVELOPE the idea. We are people from all over the world, so there must be someone out there that can help us with this?
