DearWebby is actually Helmut Morscher, the CEO of Webby, inc.
Originally the "Tech Support Pits" were reports of the funniest tech support incidents, but over the years the
column gradually shifted to answering tech support questions put forward by the readers of the Dear
Webby Humor Letter.
This collection of computer and web advice was started partly because readers demanded an archive, and partly
because some questions were asked again and again. Each page has a different day's Tech Support Pits column.
Have FUN!

Tech Support Pits column from Dear Webby's Humor Letter of
11/03/04: Click for food
Tech Support Pits:
From Bonnie===
Dear Webby,
How do those links' sites in the newsletter generate free
"stuff"? I always go to the Hunger, Feed the Animals, &
Breast Cancer site & add my click, but don't know how it
works. Thanks!
Bonnie
Dear Bonnie
The advertisers, who have their buttons and banners on
those sites, will pay a certain amount for each time
somebody orders some stuff from them.
For example, if you buy a Celtic Charm Ring, then that
company will contribute a few dollars. Overall it works
out to about a cup of food per click.
Yesterday 154,830 cups of food were paid for that way!
The food is usually dry staples like flour or rice. For
starving families a cup of flour can go a long way.
Have FUN!
