Hi! I've just launched a new online tool that tracks twitter trending and trendsetters specifically around the topics of Content Strategy, User Experience Strategy, SEO Strategy and Web Strategy. Thought I'd share it on here. If anyone has any feedback for how we can make it more useful, I'm all ears. Here's the URL: http://trends.contentini.com/

Quick question for writers out there. When contacting sources who aren't there, how long do you wait before calling them again?

The Chicken and the Egg. My blog has stated getting heavy traffic recently. I should be really thrilled. However heavy traffic means a more stable and powerful host server and higher costs. Although I have google adsense and Amazon associates ads on the site they bring in no revenue at all as no one clicks on the links. I have been told that I need to find a sponsor who will pay to advertise on the site. Do any of you know how to find one or maybe know of a company that would be interested?

See who is advertising on other comedy websites, or google comedy and see what ads are on the search page. These would be good companies to reach out to.

Have you tried a leaderboard (728 x 90) ad before? I've noticed they perform well when I get spikes in traffic. Nice site by the way.

I was contacted by an editor to write articles for a mag. We talked on the phone and she said, I'll pay X per piece. Two pieces are now posted on the website. Altogether, I'm writing 5 stories for her. What is the etiquette for requesting payment? Should I wait and ask for one check for all 5 once they're published? Any advice?

I love Penelope's blog for the perfect mix of personal and professional insights. I hate the idea that one should not share personal stories on "serious" websites. In fact, I'm distrustful of people who CAN separate their personal from their professional life too well.

That's a great link, Mike! When I talk to clients before I start working on content for their website, I always ask about personality.
