There have been several posts lately about "stupid" or "unlikely" ideas that make money. I could see this falling into that category. It's an interesting attempt, if not singularly creative.

I thought I was browsing Hacker News, but I guess reddit changed their layout today.

It's like the guy that sold the page for $1 per pixel. At least it's tongue-in-cheek cyber-begging.

A friend tried cyberbegging about 10 years ago. It appears to be more successful nowadays.

thought it was decently artistic.
