		<description>Marko:

Agreed.  There are places for contribution where a little of your time returns a ton of value.  Last.fm is a terrific example.

But there are plenty of sites where the return is more intangible and longer-term.  Tagging searches for instance would benefit the community but may not do you much good in the short term.  

In those instances, we may be asking too much from participants.</description>

		<description>&quot;Not a clear return on investment for the time and effort&quot;. Depends on the site. On a site like last.fm, tehre is a great return, because the more I tag, the better they know wat I might like. And the better my personal radio will be.</description>
