Donating to Seti

Making link live:
Goodsearch

no support via toolbar for Chrome though, but IE and probably other browsers will go! Install it and help SETI in fund-rising!

And if you do purchases on eBay as most of us do it will help too!

I just recived : your purchase will give 25-37% to SETI as donation! How pity we didn't have this earlier!!!

Works in IE8, but I normally don't have a toolbar and this toolbar is very ugly + uses yahoo for searching, I use google...

but you ignore the fact most of the ACTIVE participants also see the mis management & lack of accountability by said management. Many of whom have been
abused by the cheer leaders for even commenting.

Server is hardware. No one can prevent it from crash time to time and it was repaired ASAP by SETI crew. What their fault do you see here?? Most of latest downtime came from BOINC server code upgrade. Look in forums deeply ;)

I will donate, and I will donate much, when PayPal works for donations to SETI. Until then my only donation to SETI is crunching and electricity.

SETI misses out on hundreds of thousands of dollars by not having the PayPal option. Most people from outside of the U.S, will not donate unless there's a PayPal type of option.

It's too complicated as it is now, and bear in mind that the rest of the world does not use credit card payments in the same way as people in the U.S does. Most people from outside the U.S, will refuse using their VISA/Mastercard directly for such a donation. I for one, refuse to give out my VISA card number online to ANYTHING.

Also remember that participants from the rest of the world, can not claim tax deduction for such a donation.

I repeat myself: Make PayPal an option, and cash will start flowing in, in a way never seen before. Until that happens, SETI will run on a shoe string budget forever.

Well I use my VISA online and has done it several times, so far no problems...

IE8 kept crashing when closing it, I uninstalled the Goodsearch toolbar and it stopped doing that...

Don't know, maybe the Goodsearch toolbar conflicts with some other stuff I have installed. Anyway, I don't like have a toolbar at all, so I'll stick with searching from the IE8 search box using Goodsearch.

But for SETI, I prefer to use my Visa debit card - smaller fee charged by the handling company, better exchange rate (did someone say it was good at the moment? Must check - I'm getting close to star renewal date), and no problems at all in previous years.
