Write a web app, of course. In less than 30 non-consecutive hours Theo and I were able to conceptualize, design, develop and test JustDonateYourMoney.com or JDYM for short, one of our many brain children here at Labgfx.

What the heck is JDYM?

JustDonateYourMoney.com is a simple concept, in that it will help you generate new traffic to your website while improving page rank in a new, fun, and exciting way. You’re in control of where the Donation, or “tag” is placed on the home page by tweaking your donation amount. JDYM will also never randomize the location of the donations you paid for! This is so you won’t ever worry that the donation you paid for is at the bottom of the page.

To put a little spin on things, we decided to do something fun. In 2009 we will announce to the JDYM community what we did or will do with the donated money, hence the website name! Be sure to stick around.

The idea was based around what already exists out there in the web, following the rule “don’t re-invent the wheel, just realign it”, told by Anthony J. D’Angelo. Our core vision is as follows; take some concepts that had worked previously, develop new features, improve some of the ones we thought were problematic, put spin on the entire idea and create something entirely unique. This should be easy, right?

To say the least, we’re extremely excited about JDYM’s release and look forward to watching how it will compete with other websites that are similar. Special thanks to Carl, Jared and Tommy for helping us with the closed-beta testing over the weekend.

Feel free to go check it out. We utilize PayPal’s services to handle the purchasing aspect. If you don’t have a PayPal account don’t worry! You can go ahead and use your credit card through PayPal even if you don’t have an account. Oh and always remember, Just Donate!
