What is a Florin you ask?
The Florin* derives from the city of Florence in Italy and frequently refers to the gold coin (Fiorino D'oro) struck in 1252.
At Angie's Diary we have revived it for your benefit. It's our way of thanking you for being a loyal reader and contributor.

for example, in relation to the Dutch guilder.














Another excellent incentive and giant step forward for the magazine, Angie.
You keep on inspiring and motivating us!
Thank you Daphne,
Writers thrive on comments & critiques, so why not reward them with Florins and enhance their exposure and skills?
This is a great addition to the magazine. It will certainly be a reason to interact more for us readers and writers. Never a dull moment in this e-zine
I salute you, Angie & Co.
Never a dull moment indeed!
That's the byline I should have chosen for the magazine.
Cheers, dear Sandra.
Once more Angie is making a move for the writer's of this world. You are a special person, hard at work for others - no wonder why your magazine has been #1 on the web - and for those not contributing, get going - I can't say enough about Angie and Angie's Diary - so if you have a voice, let's hear it, in all genres - tell your friends. Always, Nancy
Brava, brava Angelica, che idea che hai, molto originale!
I like your ideas and the way your creative mind works.
Hai meritato mile Florini nell mio quore, ciao cara!
Carissima Branka,
Faro del mio meglio di guadagnare i prossimi mille Fiorini del tuo cuore!
I will make an effort to earn the next thousand Florins of your heart.
Bacione.
What a wonderful way to add even more incentive to see and interact with the number one writers', authors' and readers' EZine on the net. (Ichiban to enjoy with a beer at Shiba-San's)
Thank you, Robert,
For your insights, and for always making me smile from ear to ear
Excellent idea! A great site just got greater.
Dear Andrew,
We value your comments, integrity, and tireless support of Angie’s Diary.
Compliments with this new feature, it makes sense, and I've seen similar systems around. I hope it will actually work.
Cheers.
