Here’s an interesting strategy for raising money for research: Marc van Roosmalen is asking for internet donations to fund his work on Amazon primates. He’s not trying to raise much — his goal is $31,000 — and it’s a good cause. There’s also a prize! He’ll name a newly discovered monkey after the blogosphere, calling it Lagothrix blogii, the blog monkey. It will invite the obvious jokes about monkeys typing, but hey, it’s a cute monkey.
