@U2 is a free web site and we expect it will always remain
that way. We're blessed to have free web hosting provided by
One World Telecommunications
(OWT).
However, we do pay OWT for any programming and behind-the-scenes
site upgrades. In our 2007 Reader Survey, you indicated that
you would
prefer to make voluntary contributions to help @U2 pay these
costs, rather than have us place advertisements on the web site.
Your contributions are appreciated to help us offset these
costs. You may contribute by clicking the PayPal button here:
In addition to our occasional development/programming costs,
we also incur costs while bringing you the U2-related news coverage
we do on this web site. We have more than 20 U2 fans working
on the news staff, and they spend their own money to report
from events like the RRHOF induction ceremony or Bono's commencement
speech at UPenn, for example. Combine the gas, hotel, and related
costs, and it can be very expensive to report on an event.
We use the word "contribution", and not "donation" for a reason: A "donation"
implies that you're giving something and getting nothing in return. We hope
that's not the case here! A "contribution", on the other hand, implies that
you are part of the larger effort. And by contributing some spare change, you
are.
Thank you for your patronage and support of @U2.
