I think the trouble with the Gittip site is that I have learned more about Gittip outside of the site through articles, testimonials, and mentions, than through the site itself.

I almost wish that some of the stories of the people who both give to and receive from Gittip had more of a center stage so that I could send someone to Gittip without having to do all the explanations myself. It would be way better for them to be able to explore that meaning for themselves which would allow them to figure out if they would like to be a giver, or a receiver, or both.
