How Much Should High-Tech Give to Charity?

This is the time of year for giving. This means not only giving presents to loved ones and friends, but also sending off the remaining charitable donations before the end of the tax year. There was an interesting article in the New York Times (NYT) on this topic a week before the Xmas holiday: What Should a Billionaire Give – and What Should You? The article talked about the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation and the $31 million Warren Buffet pledged to the organization. It also mentioned that Buffet pledged another $6 billion to other charitable foundations. The article started me wondering about what other high-tech entrepreneurs give to charity.
