There's another service in the same space ... PayBitBack.
Simply mention a person in a Tweet and then also mentioni @PayBitBack and the service will reply with a bitcoin address for the tip jar. The funds received into the tip jar can then be redeemed only by that person.
http://www.PayBitBack.com for instructions
I've tried it ... and it worked fine when the recipient understands bitcoin. For others, it didn't go as well. I doubt the tip I sent to a photographer ever got redeemed.
YouTipIt has "escrowed TipIts" which work the same way -- you initiate a tip to any Facebook user -- and only that user can redeem the tip.

There was a recent question at Bitcoin SE that might be relevant: How can I accept Bitcoin donations on my blog or site?
I started a convo around a service someone is offering and asked him to include a bitcoin related button so people can "bitcent" others when they either like the enagement or content being passed to them.
Here is the convo:

I suggest BTCinch might have a solution but does anyone else know of a button that can be placed so people can give a few bitcents?
Thanks.
