Check out the new free software and fun stuff released as part of our NANY (New Apps for the New Year) 2018 event on January 1, 2018: here.
Since 2007 we have held an annual event that we call NANY (New Apps for the New Year), where we ask the coders who hang out on DonationCoder to create some new piece of free software and share it with the world on January 1st of the new year. NANY is really the funnest thing we do on this site, and it's one of the few times we can all play together. There are no winners or losers, it's simply a celebration of programming and creating new software and sharing it with the world.

Crowdfunding: Some break from always reading about Amazon's E-book DominanceShort Story:
Pubslush. New "Not Self-Publishing" 10 page only submission crowdfunding service/charity. Url: http://www.pubslush.com/ Their words: While we are honored by the comparison, Kickstarter is primarily a crowd funding platform. PUBSLUSH on the other hand is a publisher and non profit that uses crowd funding as the first step in the publication process to source new writing talent. Also, in regards to the comparison to self publishing, PUBSLUSH is actually a full service publisher, and really the opposite of self publishing: we never ask the author to pay any money, ever. Self publishing implies that an author can publish a book themself. With PUBSLUSH, our model requires 2,000 unique supporters, other than the author, to publish a book. In this way, we use crowd sourcing to gauge a market, and to benefit the author by establishing an audience before the book is even published. This also allows quality content to emerge organically, which is one of the major issues of self publishing. When a book is published through PUBSLUSH, it is sold in printed and digital form. We believe printed books and a presence in bookstores are still an important part of an author’s success. |
