Almost exactly a year ago we were dipping our toes back into the affiliate scene so we could provide just such a button. Then this happened. I can only say that we were quite glad not to be dependent on that revenue stream...

"Buy now" from No Starch or O'Reilly or other FLOSS-friendly presses certainly seems safer. Why not ThinkGeek LWN t-shirts to support the site too? Or Flattr buttons, maybe? Easy for me to propose a whole list of improvements for other to implement, as always! I bought the Kerrisk book last night (and another at the same time) and am sorry LWN doesn't get a cent.
