Hello, hackers! Have a link: https://my.fsf.org/associate/support_freedom?referrer=10428
TL;DR: The Free Software Foundation could use your help meeting a fundraising goal, and they are awesome. https://my.fsf.org/associate/support_freedom?referrer=10428 will take you to the join page.
After SOPA and PIPA, I think it's in our best interest to try and support any organizations that help us fight for digital freedom. In fact, the day after SOPA fell, I joined the Free Software Foundation as an associate member.
Well, it just so happens that they've been having a membership drive! Their goal is $300,000, and they only have about $20,000 to go. Let's make this last day the best they've had yet!
The FSF, in the coming year, will be defending our rights in the UEFI secure boot case. They will be continuing their efforts to bring more people to stream free formats like Ogg Vorbis. They will also, of course, be hacking on cool software like GNU Social, GNU MediaGoblin, and GNU Emacs (though I'm sure some of them use Vi)!
Consider making a donation this year, to support this great organization through a difficult time.
It's $10/month, or $5 per month for students. You can also pay yearly if you prefer. You get some cool benefits, including five email addresses (forward only), a USB membership card with Trisquel GNU/Linux, and access to the members-only forums on my.fsf.org.
Once again, head on over to https://my.fsf.org/associate/support_freedom?referrer=10428 and donate today!
Feel free to remove my referral information, but I don't mind taking credit if you don't mind giving it :) also, if you can forward this information through any channel at all, please do so.
