So, this is an interesting stab at a new micropayment system, which would supposedly allow content creators to get paid for their content, while not being too onerous for users or consumers.

Unfortunately, as this video describes it, I’m not 100% on board. They seem to be saying that someone who consumes (and enjoys) 100 bits of content a month will pay the same amount as someone who consumes 10 bits. Although, intriguingly, the more selective consumer’s “Flattr” clicks would each be worth more.

You can sign up to learn more at the Flattr site, here. It’s still in invite-only beta.
