Interesting service that attempts to reward content creators with micro-payments from their fans.

You sign up and deposit some money. If you like someone's song, art, video, blog etc you can click their Flattr button. At the end of the month your predetermined monthly donation is divided by the number of clicks you made and each recipient gets an equal slice of the pie.

I've suggested it to my friend who's got a podcast he loves doing but has no funding.

Might be useful to some of you and perhaps it's another source of donations for this site. I've already found a few sites in the catalog to support, that otherwise I may not have. One example is NoScript. It's a lot easier to click the flattr button rather than go through the regular Paypal Donate button.

You can also setup recurring flattrs i.e a subscription and/or click a donate button.

Seems like a win for everyone and flattr obviously get a cut to keep things running.
