TLF Ads

by on August 23, 2008 · 3 comments

Just to chime on Berin’s post two other things that readers ought to know: the ad revenue we generate is trivial—on the order of dozens of dollars per month—and none of us get a dime of it as individuals. Rather, the money gets plowed into shared expenses for the site, such as advertising and promotional materials, hosting costs, etc. Sonia won’t get a dime of the advertising revenue generated by the McCain ads on this site, so whatever her reasons for praising his tech agenda, the lure of dozens of dollars of McCain payola from this site wasn’t among them.

    I whole heartily agree with the premise of your site, but there’s even more to it.

    Thanks, “Culturally Irrelevant.” Would you care to elaborate on your rather cryptic comment?

    Looks like comment spam to me.
