Because of the use of the internet, Artists of Utah and 15 Bytes provide wonderful services for relatively little cost. But there are costs. Our writers and contributors all work as volunteers, but we do have the cost of maintaining the site and creating a new edition of 15 Bytes every month. Any of you who have had a website built know that this cost alone would run in the thousands of dollars. Just for one issue.
We are proud of our editorial independance in publishing 15 Bytes. We are able to maintain this freedom because the only people we have to answer to you are you, the members of the community. You are our stockholders, our board of directors.
So buy a little stock this month and keep 15 Bytes alive for the next six months.
We appreciate contributors at all levels. If $5 is your widow's mite, we will gladly accept it. If you can spare a little extra and think 15 Bytes is worth it, why not send a little more, say a dollar a byte.
And if you're lucky enough to drive a fuel-efficient vehicle and have even more to contribute, we have some thank-you gifts for you at the right.
