Parent article: The end of the road revisited

I would like to thank LWN (and all the subscribers) for keeping such a great site alive. Just as another poster stated, I also find that my search for Linux news is made much easier. I would also have to say that without the original content, LWN would be just another (howbeit more specialized) slashdot. In other words, I appreciate and look forward to the original content. Keep up the good work!

I would also like to ask if there is a way that we subscribers can provide free "official" advertisement for LWN (e.g., "For the best Linux news, subscribe to...LWN" or something, with a logo) on our own sites? Given that my site hardly gets any traffic, I think that providing the option for other subscribers' sites to provide free advertising may help the effort.

I know that I could already do something, but I think that an official endorsement would be nice. Just being able to say "I subscribe to LWN" on my site, with an official logo would be "cool". :^)

Any thoughts?

Thanks again!

--Phil

Great idea.

Maybe anathema to some users, but I do occasionally sell stuff using eBay. It'd be great to have an "official" button which could be posted into the auction web form. i.e. so far as LWN is concerned, zero cost zero effort advertising into a wider market.

"Official" advertisement

Maybe we could use the LWN.net logo (the one that appears at the top left of every lwn
page) with a link to the main page and a phrase below that (like "subscribe LWN") with
a link to the subscription page.

LWN guys: do we have permission to use that image to that end?
