A while back, Wikipedia founder, Jimmy Wales, posted an appeal for donations to keep Wikipedia on the Internet as a free site. According to Wales, the site is the 5th most-read on the Web worldwide. It has a staff of under 35 people, with a 10 million dollar yearly budget. Wales took the site nonprofit in 2003 (having started in 2001), so donations are all tax deductible.
In a Wikipedia, and am very pleased that the website will continue to be financially strong.
