@TorbjornLunde Traditional ads are going the way of the dodo. Even if some people don't block them, the trend is clearly towards all browsers having ad-blocking, just as pop-up blockers before it. The whole ad market is based around trying to force people to look at junk, and dressing it up as hip as possible doesn't escape the fact that it's a dead-end.

I don't feel that profiting from Camen Design should be about showing someone else's content that I don't know, use, or care about, on my site.

Flattr looks like they want to build a brand, rather than solve the business model problem. I’m not interested in contributing to them becoming the next PayPal.

Readability is for cleaning up unreadable sites. My site is free of crap to begin with, and doesn't need cleaning up.

I’m not interested in building up somebody else's brand :)

@theraje. Sounds like a "learn how to get rich" scheme :P I make a book telling people how get rich, and I get rich off of them buying the book, which tells them to get rich, selling get rich books :P

But yes, it seems like the only viable option, even though it is daunting.

What I don't like about the write-a-book model is that it seems counter-intuitive that the only way to profit from a website is to write something on dead wood. I don't agree that I should withold information in a non-HTML format in order to promote an open web. If I were to write anything, it would be freely available to read online, in HTML, and available to purchase for reasons of supporting me.
