Description:	Why would I want to leave someone a tip? Because tipjoy makes it easy and fun for you to tip stuff you love online. Here's how: 1. There's no checkout process, so you don't have to go through an annoying checkout process to leave your tip. Just click the tip button and that's it - you're done! 2. Each click of the 'tip this' button is a small fixed price (10 cents is the default), so you don't have to think too much about whether or not to leave a tip. If you liked it, tip it, and don't look back! 3. Think about it - you're probably a big fan of one or two sites out there who really have made your life better, more fun, or taught you something. Now think about the guy on the other end, toiling away to make the stuff you love. Why not thank him by leaving a tip - let them know you care!
