cool, it seems everything in bitcoin is happening soooo fast.

Bitcoin is a lifeline for the struggling media industry.

I agree, if a lot of people donate it will appear across the news.  If very little people donate that will also appear as well.  Currently they are sitting at  $23.42 raised on 15 donats... you can view the donation address here:  https://blockchain.info/address/1FoxNT4Nh15bVUZu59w6oRpNABKm74dxG4

I donated. My address was different than the others. Lets see how this little test goes for them, and hopefully they keep it around, and other media starts using it.

Just sent $20.  The highest possible. 

This is an important move folks.  Donate.  The more you can do, the better. 

The masses will only remember a huge number when they announce the results of this experiment.

Make the number huge.

Very positive news. I hope the experiment will prove successful.

I posted this little blurb on my Facebook;

"Paid ~22p in bitcoin to get on http://www.suntimes.com/ as a contribution to their experiment with the cryptocurrency. Also wanted to see for myself how viable international microtransactions are. Suffice to say I am still a supporter of bitcoin, anyone got a better way I could send pretty much any amount of money to Chicago with a fee of under 10p?"

Yeah yeah, I know my donation amount is crap, but all their news looked pretty uninteresting (not even a tech section?!) so I spent maybe 3 minutes max on the site. Still blindly showed my support regardless though. If everyone did the same this could get some serious attention.

This is great news, sent a small donation

you donated ? is it a donation ?
i thought that was just something to pay for a subscription to the Chicago Sun-Times
