At the end of the month, there's always a rush of last-minute donations. I'm not sure why. I suppose people want to see if we make the goal without them having to donate, which means the bonus content for donors is probably less of a draw than I think it is.

One of the downsides of my new schedule (3-midnight) is that I can't keep a running total for the last few hours. I'm sure people want to know if we made the goal. I visualize people hitting refresh, waiting for it to reach $990, then giving their $10 so they can be the ones who brought us over the top.

Doesn't happen, unfortunately. All donations are processed by hand as soon as I can get to them. I've been meaning to find some way of integrating my system with PayPal, but I haven't yet.

I could maybe help you with this if you wanted. Are you using PHP? It's supposed to be pretty simple to integrate.

Yeah. I figure if I get the exact names of what's being $_POST'ed, I can do it. The trick is testing it before it goes live (because I have an alarming tendency to just implement things and then fix them when they break)
