Thanks to Justin who is apparently doing an independent expenditure for Obama! All right! And fitting for later in the day.
Let me explain why I’m hyping advertising. ArchPundit is now hosted by Fatdays–essentially a friend who thinks it is cool to have lots of local original content generated. That said, ArchPundit takes more space and bandwidth than we ever realized. It is going to cost more, but other options–such as Typepad turned out not to be realistic. I’m generally uncomfortable with hyping donations because I like to be able to walk away for breaks from time to time without feeling guilty. Ads allow me not to ask for cash and provide something for others. Currently the site is averaging between 400-500 visits per weekday and while the audience is not huge, it is full of political junkies.
