Site Changes

[Bob Zumbrunnen]

We've added a Commentary section to the homepage. IMO, the article we're carrying there right now (it'll be changed weekly) is one of those where you probably shouldn't be drinking a beverage while reading it.

A 160x600 or 120x600 ad is displayed with the commentary, regardless of whether you're a Premium member. We're paying for that particular article and need help offsetting the cost.

We're also going to use Commentary as a separate revenue stream. More details will be available later, but aside from very rare instances, we'll be charging Commentary providers on both sites. It'll be part of a "Commentary Provider" package we'll see where, for a price, a Commentary writer will be able to post commentary linkable from the home page, we'll keep an accessible archive of their previous articles, their articles will be displayed with their own ads, and we'll include some banner, box, or text-link ad inventory as part of the package.

Any interested writers should PM me directly and I'll get them the rate sheets and what the package offers.
