Past Daily’s Spring Fundraiser – Update 20 – Time Running Out.

Day 30 – only a few hours left. Only hours to go to make your contribution and change things around – I have to say it’s been a very disappointing last few days. I can’t stress to you how important and needed your contributions are in order to keep Past Daily up and running and to even keep the Archive functioning, for that matter. Unless we get within even sight of our goal, we’ll have to cut back on posts to one a week, at most. Make a serious decision to divest the archive, and dismantle a collection its taken 50 years to build. There are a number of tough decisions that will have to be faced, should we not get to even 1/2 of our goal. We may have to extend the fundraiser or just quietly fade away and give up on Past Daily all together. It’s a tough set of decisions to make – ones which I hadn’t hoped on making when I started this thing. I wanted Past Daily to be an eclectic place to make discoveries. I wanted it to be a place to revisit history and become acquainted with the unfamiliar. I wanted it to be a place where you could hear something very old and discover something very new all at the same time. I wanted Past Daily to make a difference and to not be one of those sites that dazzle-and-bait, yet deliver nothing but a loss of your time.
