Help wanted

Advertising isn't wrong, bad ads are "wrong". Honestly, I'd rather LWN continued to be a great news source with a few carefully chosen ads and the crew could afford to invest some more - scale up a bit, take a team building weekend trip to a small island somewhere, etc. - than have to live with what must be a tough time economically at the moment.

Besides, I'd probably read the ads if they were reasonably appropriate to me. Twitter and word of mouth are great, but sometimes even the most connected of us discover a good thing through an ad on a website, even if we choose not to admit to it.
