Content for companies

The most _missing_ point in Linux, and therefore in news about Linux, is
the view from a companies point. There are lots of nice articles about
stuff individual users need/want (me too), but far too less about "how to
draw stats on a Linux system", "which tools exist to check how the server
is running", "what about clustering", "which databases can be used in
clusters, and how to do that", "eGroupWare and who is better", "how to
switch from MS Office to OpenOffice" and so on.

By writing such articles, you could possibly gain a lot more company
subscribers, especially if there's a "for companies" series. I imagine
admins going to their CIO saying "look, they got news about Linux for
companies, costs only 300/year".

I prefer cups over t-shirts :-)

There were a lot of good comments, and the idea of "sponsoring for an
article if you liked it" sound good. The "cannot send link" is a really
big problem - I tried to force some people buying LWN by sending a link to
a page which is "only avail in 1 week", but I guess people never look
again after a week. So something like a sponsored link would be nice.

LWN is fantastic, I especially like the kernel news.

With all the tips from the community, you should earn a lot more soon.
