Hey All,

My friend Chris Webber has done this CRAZY thing and quit his job to
work full time on his open source project MediaGoblin.  He made this
really funny movie to try to trick you into giving him money to help
him buy food and other stuffs so he can code more.  I could tell you
about how great and important his project is, but you should really
just watch the video on his fundraiser website if for nothing else but
the LOLs.  You can view it here:

I will say that Chris is a pretty great guy and a very competent
programmer.  You can definitely trust that he will put any donated
funds to good use.  Chris has previously worked at Creative Commons
and is a huge supporter of Free Software and Free Culture.  You can
find out more about Chris here:  http://dustycloud.org/.

He is at 36% of his fund-raising goal and he only has 11 days left!
Please throw him a few dollars for a virtual hug or maybe other
rewards.

Thanks everyone,
eviljoel
