+Title: Flattr
+Tags: en, flattr, free culture, cc, tpb, the pirate bay, tpb afk
+
+I learned that Flattr__, a social micropayment service that I've been
+overlooking for a long time, was created by some of the founders of `The Pirate
+Bay`__ after watching `TPB AFK`__.

+
+I'm trying to donate (or pay) more and more to people using alternative means to
+produce stuff, like artists using CC__ licenses or software developers working
+with free licenses (I already *bought a copy* of the movie :). I feel like
+I have to get more involved to keep the wheel spinning and help people keep
+doing stuff, cutting the intermediaries as much as possible.

+
+I don't know why I had some resistance to get into Flattr, maybe is because
+Facebook made me hate anything that have a thumbs up, or a +1 or counter, but
+knowing the history behind it a little better encouraged me to finally get an
+account__ and start using Flattr. And is really nice. Is much easier than going
+through Paypal each time a want to give some bucks to someone, and allows you to
+even make very small donations.

+I recommend to see this introductory video:

+
+I also decided to flattr-ize all my website, each project individually and even
+this blog. Not exactly for economical reasons (I think very few people know
+about anything I do so I don't really expect to earn any money from this), but
+as another way to spread the word. Also, I'm really curious about what I just
+said, I really wonder if there is someone out there grateful enough to make even
+a micro-donation to anything I do or did :)
+
+Anyway, I would like to recommend to do the same, if you do something great, add
+a Flattr button to what you do, and if you like something out there and it has
+a Flattr, click it. Let's see if it helps to keep the wheel spinning :)
