wolven7 | Ad Space on various wonders.

Ectoplasmosis: Link Post. They find the awesome things on the InterTubes, this week, and then comment on it. You watch, read, comment, and generally engage in the whatever. The patterns that emerge from their particular milieu are wonderful and amazing. From Eliza Gauger:

'We’re still working on advertising, and we’d really like to start offering small ad slots to our constituency. While an ideal Ectomo would be ad-free, and we love you all very much, none of you have yet offered to be our wealthy patron-of-the-arts. So we’ve been driven to whore ourselves out.

'We really like the ad scheme that’s going over on the Something Awful boards: pay $30, get 30 days of rotating banner space. Put whatever worksafe stuff you want up there.

'. . .I will simply inquire: would you, could you, advertise on Ectomo? Would you, could you, pay $30 for 30 days? Tell me in the comments.'

Something Positive: It's Something freaking Positive. Everyone has at least heard of this comic, if not loves it. From Randy:

'Josh, my ads manager, is moving from Boston to Santa Monica. The last time he will check his email is August 31st, 5pm ET. He will not do so again until September 15th. Any ad run between these two dates must be paid for and have the art submitted by August 31st, 5pm ET, for the ad to run. If you were considering an ad on our site or have already contacted us about advertising during that time, please be mindful of this. We apologize for the inconvenience. -R'

Punch An' Pie: High carry-over readership, from Queen of Wands, and lots of linkthrough traffic. Not going to quote Aeire, as there's a lot there. Read it.

If you tell them I sent you, they'll look at you with a confused whatever the fuck on their faces, because they don't know me. Why do I do it, then? Because they produce things that I like. If you pay them, everyone wins, don't they? You get ad space, they get moneys and to meet new people, and I get to continue reading things I like.

So. As the bible says, let us all be pimps and hos to one another (Ephesians 5:21).

Ta.
