Quote from Blogging

Kottke explained that he was asking regular readers to become 'micropatrons' of the site by contributing a small donation (Rettberg 136). So Kottke is basically going around in blog asking readers to learn the ways of micropatrons by creating small donation. Actually it was the great idea, but it was risky because he has to quit his job and tried a brand new exercise which was never done before. It was obvious that he could not get‘big’ patrons from ‘big’ sponsors Furthermore, micopatrons shows plenty of ‘micro’ are totally able to turn in to ‘mega’. One little thing can turns into something bigger than previous one. His challenge was hazardous but affective same time. It shows internet, especially blog in this case, can be transforms to something more than just social chatting or sharing thought space. He even has to quit his job to keep up his blog going. There is more than just one possibility for everything, we just need to look around little bit more.
