What would people think of trying it out for a couple of months? We could start with Google ads to see how well ads work and once we have an idea of how much to expect, we could solicit ads directly from companies. It's one of those holes I don't think we want to get down into. But I don't have strong reasons for, other than sanity. It just feels bad IMO... $145,000 would pay for a lot of hackfests ... if we sold ads directly to companies, we could control who was advertising. And if we are getting that much potentially paying traffic, we should have a nice, obvious link to Friends of GNOME on the home page, contribute and support page!
Back to "lets advertise ourselves", ruler and stuff? :) behdad
