Safety Lights Are For Dudes

You might remember, some time ago, me posting about social micropayment website Flattr, and how I had closed beta invites, and all that jazz. For those of you who don't remember, this is a little video which tells you what flattr is all about:



The good news is that flattr is now out of closed beta, which means you can all join up. If you join up I can flattr you and you can flattr me, and it's all good!

:D

You might notice that I have a new little thing in my sidebar, in between Holly's wishlist and my paypal link, and it looks like this:




Yup, I got my invite code for Flattr. If you've never heard of flattr, it's a sort of cross between hitting "like" on Facebook, and paypal. The video below explains all:


I put in a small amount of money, I flattred Jesus and Mo (because, hey, they're Jesus and Mo, and the barmaid in that strip is my idol), and now I get to get flattred myself, assuming people like what they read enough to give me a slice of their pie.

Flattr is in closed beta at the minute, so I suspect it's unlikely I will start making more than I put in any time soon - I'm not cool enough - but if you want in, I do have three invite codes to give out. Interested? Say so in the comments.

Hopefully this is the kick in the pants I need to get the wife to tell me how to code the little row of buttons under each post which he has on his blog, too...
