I've been reading Jim Kukral's blog for a while now, so I've been aware that Scratchback was coming. Then it was here. Pretty cool service.

So when I saw it posted on TechCrunch I didn't think about it twice. I thought, "that's not new..." and went on. Then I saw Joel's post and it hit me. Hey, their on Tech Crunch!

I am so slow sometimes.

I added a scratchback.com widget on the right just to see what happens. Of course, I don't blog enough to really generate anything, though I will admit that the $19 I got on adsense suprised me....so ya never know.

I was also thinking, since I am not really interested in monetizing this site really, that wouldn't it be cool that instead of it being paid to me, I could select a charity of my choice to have the money go to in my name. Supposedly, 72% of NPO donations are now received online, so this would be yet another way to donate.
