2. I would like to include an ad revenue componant. Does anyone have any good 'how to' resources about creating/maximizing blogging revenue? I know nothing at this point... However, I have a lot of solid and well-known women writers lined up, and I have a feeling that the blog readership could potentially be high... so I figure I should at least this to generate tiny bit of little pocket change :)<br>
