Donations: Yay or Nay?

I love blogging. I really really do. I mean, I gave up podcasting because I express things better in posts than on a podcast (maybe that’s because I was just talking to myself…). I problog for Gadgetell and do some design/web work, and that’s a good source of income, but where I have the most passion to write I don’t really get “paid,” per se. But I would like to ask you, the readers…

Would you like to change that?

If you like the content enough and would like to spare some money, I would greatly appreciate it. If you like the content but don’t feel like donating, that’s fine as well. It’s completely up to you. Another question would be would you do a one-time donation or a recurring donation?

With the donations, I’d primarily be saving up to get a MacBook Pro to replace my aging iBook for easier blogging (widescreen = better blogging experience). There’d also be a few other things I’d put it towards, but right now, I’m aiming for a MacBook Pro. If you do donate, I would be more than happy to put a link to you in the “Donators” section of a Blogroll.
