Hey y'all... lets give these drunken fools some money and click the ads as we visit the pages. More clicks = more money for the crew, which gives them more chances to bring us more inanity!

And Justin -- put some ads in the forum!

Another one or two wouldn't bother me. Just don't start with the freaking pop-ups.
Be wary of strong drink. It can make you shoot at tax collectors -- and miss.

I am for a few small ads if it makes BN money. My 2 suggestions would be homebrew shops that give BN a kickback if some goes through the BN site to get to them. The other could be Amazon. With all the books mentioned during the show (like Designing Great Beers, Microbrewed Adventure's, etc) why not have one of those Amazon links where they kick back a little money if someone makes a purchase.

The small google ads would be another way to go. They're pretty non-intrusive, and they target themselves to be relevant to whatever is in the given thread.

And they pay well too.

People need to click on the ads that are there. I don't care if they put a bit more up, but they only get paid if people actually click on the link(I think). I just open a bunch of windows and then close them again once and a while.

Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza.

I don't see a problem with it. TBN can use the ad revenue. But like George said, NO FREAKIN' POPUPS!!!
