0:00:03.067,0:00:06.533
On the Internet, you can create or take part of content.

0:00:06.533,0:00:09.100
When you create, there's not really a good way

0:00:09.100,0:00:11.100
to get money for the content,

0:00:11.100,0:00:12.633
and when you find something you like,

0:00:12.633,0:00:14.856
there's no good way to show love for it.

0:00:14.856,0:00:17.000
This problem is universal,

0:00:17.000,0:00:18.700
for blogger and their readers,

0:00:18.700,0:00:20.600
musicians and their listeners,

0:00:20.600,0:00:22.367
photographers, film creators,

0:00:22.367,0:00:24.533
programmers and so on.

0:00:24.533,0:00:27.667
So we created Flattr to solve this.

0:00:27.667,0:00:30.033
This is how it works:

0:00:30.033,0:00:33.633
Every month, the Flattr user pays a small fee.

0:00:33.633,0:00:35.867
Let's compare it with birthday cake.

0:00:35.867,0:00:37.300
When you have a cake,

0:00:37.300,0:00:39.533
you want to give slices to the people you like.

0:00:39.533,0:00:41.685
Flattr helps you do that.

0:00:41.685,0:00:43.167
If you've created something,

0:00:43.167,0:00:45.167
you can add a Flattr button to your content,

0:00:45.167,0:00:47.333
or if you find something you like,

0:00:47.333,0:00:49.833
and there's a Flattr button besides the content,

0:00:49.833,0:00:51.433
you click it.

0:00:51.433,0:00:53.067
Each button is a counter showing

0:00:53.067,0:00:57.233
how many people are willing to give cake for the content.

0:00:57.233,0:00:58.654
At the end of the month,

0:00:58.654,0:01:00.500
your cake is sliced in as many pieces

0:01:00.500,0:01:02.533
as you clicked Flattr buttons.

0:01:02.533,0:01:07.067
Each slice is then given to the correct content creator.

0:01:07.067,0:01:08.667
If you click 10 buttons,

0:01:08.667,0:01:12.133
the 10 creators will get a tenth of the cake each.

0:01:12.133,0:01:13.800
If you click 100 buttons,

0:01:13.800,0:01:17.367
the 100 creators will get a 100th of the cake.

0:01:17.367,0:01:18.900
The slices might be small,

0:01:18.900,0:01:21.500
but everyone's slices will all add up,

0:01:21.500,0:01:23.000
or as we say in Sweden,

0:01:23.000,0:01:26.700
"Many small streams will form a large river"

0:01:26.700,0:01:29.533
As a creator, you will get money you've never got before.

0:01:29.533,0:01:31.833
As a consumer, you can help creators out

0:01:31.833,0:01:33.600
with just a small click.

0:01:33.600,0:01:35.155
If you haven't guessed it,

0:01:35.155,0:01:38.200
Flattr is a wordplay of "flatter" and "flatrate".

0:01:38.200,0:01:41.438
With a flatrate fee, you can flatter people.
