Web Worker Daily<\/a> is asking an interesting question:<\/p>\n

which sites and services on the new web (defined however you like) are important enough that you\u2019d pay for them? And how much? Or are you dedicated to always finding ways to do things online for free, no matter what the entrepreneurs might like to hear?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I try to find things that I need for free. But sometimes I don’t. Or things that I really like give me an option to pay for them. And then I do. Currently, I only pay for my Flickr account<\/a> and Linux Weekly News<\/a> subscription. I also donate frequently to sites and tools that I like, but that, I guess, doesn’t count.<\/p>\n

If I had to pay for the tools I’m using today for free, Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Reader, Goolge Docs, Google Analytics, Twitter, and del.icio.us would be on my list. I’d also had no problem at all paying for software: WordPress,\u00a0 Firefox, Vim, Pidgin, Fedora Linux. And I would subscribe to TechCrunch<\/a>, Web Worker Daily<\/a>, and Slashdot<\/a>. This probably sounds like a lot, but I really can’t imagine how I could keep up with the world without using all of these.<\/p>\n

What about you?<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
