I think the offer is bad. We've just made something similar in a month,
without being required to pay US$ 1000/month (even if it's 75% off now).

Best regards,
Claus

I think the ad offer will be attractive to large companies looking to hire
OSS developers or influence their purchasing decisions.

I'm interested to see how much goes to the website owners.

I think they'll be able to attract plenty of OSS developers blogs to
advertise on.

Behdad, are you thinking GNOME should consider being a part of it? I think
Planet GNOME would be exactly the type of readership they'd be hoping to
hit.

Yeah.


I'm interested to see how much goes to the website owners.


Good Q.  Maybe we can casually ask them?

I'm not sure.  But *if* we end up adding ads to our pages, AdBard sounds like 
should be it.  Perhaps we can wait and see what comes out of it first.

I was asking whether we should sell them ad space on, say, p.g.o, not paying 
them to advertise us.
