Abstract

We take a first step towards analysing fundraising on the internet. Internet fundraising allows for the possibility of instantaneous feedback on campaign progress. Analysing data from a large number of small scale internet fundraising campaigns we show that the rich feed-back information provided to donors alters subsequent donor behaviour. In particular, early donors set a precedent for later donors.
