In most cases, I think services should be private and money-making. But here are a few things I think should be donation-based and not traditional businesses (or I'm thankful they're not money-making things now): Reddit, Wikipedia, Quora, Webarchive. What else?

Quora & Reddit monetize through ads? Wikipedia I agree.
Yeah, they do. Reddit makes a tiny amount of revenue for the value they provide and they traffic they make. I'm saying I wish it wasn't money-making thing though. At least not VC funded.

their is something to be said about having public knowledge repositories detached from profit seeking. With you on that! Devils Advocate would posit -- if the ads aren't hurting the user experience, then let these cos accrete value for their shareholders.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
