<p>Gittip is <b>genius grants for the rest of us</b>. Call them
pretty-smart grants, or crowd-sourced genius grants.</p>

<p>Gittip is (<a
href="https://github.com/whit537/www.gittip.com/issues/80">eventually</a>)
for the local coffee shop owner that&rsquo;s really doing a lot for your
town. You&rsquo;re a fan. You buy coffee from her, but you want to do
something more&mdash;a little something, not a big deal. If a hundred other
people in your town feel the same way, it starts to add up. Now she can
offer free coffee on Sunday mornings. Or whatever. She knows what
she&rsquo;s doing. No strings attached.</p>

<p>Gittip is (<a
href="https://github.com/whit537/www.gittip.com/issues/80">eventually</a>)
for the musician who gives their music away for free. You love their work.
You go to their shows, you actually pay for the downloads, but you want to
make sure their family is covered. You want to chip in&mdash;a little
something&mdash;so they&rsquo;re freed up to make great music.</p>

<p>Gittip is (today) for your favorite open source hacker. You implicitly
trust any software they write. You study their code. You want to free them
up to write even more of it.</p>
