Where You At?

In the future I’d like to have more organized meet-ups. So in order to get an idea of where the users of this site are located, please pin yourself to the guestmap.

(It’s just like a google map, you can zoom in.)

I better see a lot of pins on this map too, we have over 1500 forum members! If you don’t want to pin yourself to your exact city, then just pin yourself to the nearest large city.

Just a note: If you mess up, it’s ok email me and I’ll remove your misplaced pin.

Financing Opinions

I’m not one to ask for money. In fact, I don’t really need extra money to keep this site running, yet. As it is now RavingAtheists.com costs $68 a year. However, server space isn’t free. Currently the site has 1200mb of space, here’s how that breaks down:

Now, I predict that in 6 months, this site will need more space. Primarily because the forum has a huge database and a lot of users. More space will increase the yearly cost from $68 to $115 (hosting+domain registration). This site is currently hosted with Total Choice Hosting on the Silver Plan. You can see their plans here. (I don’t pay the yearly price.)

My question is; What should be done about the finances? I want to insure that this site is around for years to come. I thought about ads, but I hate ads. The best answer is donations, probably through PayPal. What do you think? Have any ideas?
