Have we received any thank you letters from any of these organizations?

Just curious, does EVERY click count, or does it only count once if you click the same ad multiple times?

I don't know exactly how AdSense calculates revenue (they don't disclose it) but I'm sure they have measures in place to prevent abuse.

Method Man any idea what your gonna donate next time.

We're still undecided as to where March's revenue will go, but we've got a few other donations in the hopper that we'll be able to announce within the next couple of weeks.

I don't like to announce anything before it's 100% official, though, because we have to rely on others to execute the donations and I can't count on them to get things right. Back in late November, we were working on a donation where you all would be able to see and even choose the individual people who would benefit. I would've liked to tell everyone about it then, but it STILL hasn't been finalized.

We have a donation to an international charity that we've been unable to make since, for whatever reason, they've been unresponsive when asked if they can make arrangements to receive a direct electronic fund transfer, which ezboard prefers. We're still trying to make it work, but if it doesn't we'll have to choose a different charity - and these examples illustrate why we can't reveal a donation until it's been completed.

We should have a couple more donations to announce before this month is over, if all goes as planned.


Please feel free to suggest your favorite charities as well, we choose a different one each month and we always take our fellow members' suggestions into consideration.

You from SF Meth?

No, ezboard is based in SF. Ezboard is our webhost and they're the ones who arrange and implement all of the ads. So, they receive the money from the site's sponsors and, each month, we tell them where to donate our revenue. None of that ad revenue even crosses our palms. That's why ezboard's address appears on all of these documents, yet NikeTalk.com is credited as the donor.

I still don't completely understand how the internet can generate money like this, but I don't have to: I just know I love what you've decided to do with it, Meth.

The credit belongs to the staff and the community as a whole. This is something that the entire staff supported and agreed to, and the revenue we're donating represents a sacrifice from each and every staff member on NT.

It's a true community accomplishment. This is what NikeTalk is all about.
