===Use of the Internet=== The advent of the Internet in the 1990s has also given Morris sides a new platform upon which to perform. Many Morris sides now have entertaining websites which seek to reflect the public persona of the individual sides as much as record their exploits and list forthcoming performances. Morris sides have traditionally raised funds by collecting cash from spectators, but in the post-Covid moves to a more cashless society, many sides now use portable card payment terminals. There are also a multitude of thriving Morris-related blogs and forums, and individual sides are to be found maintaining an interactive presence on major social networking sites. Surveys in 2021 of use of social media services by morris sides found that the Westminster Morris Men YouTube channel had received over 100,00 views<ref>{{cite web|title=Survey: Use of YouTube|first=Brian|last=Kelly|url=https://www.morrisfed.org.uk/resources/it/survey-use-of-youtube/|publisher=Morris Federation|date=1 September 2021}}</ref> and the Shrewsbury Morris's Twitter account had over 100,000 followers.<ref>{{cite web|title=Survey: Use of Twitter|first=Brian|last=Kelly|url=https://www.morrisfed.org.uk/resources/it/survey-use-of-twitter/|publisher=Morris Federation|date=1 September 2021}}</ref>
