I did just join Open Salon with the thought in mind that it might help me to connect with Salon. I don't have a lot of time to read and comment on blogs, so I don't know if Open Salon and I are doomed for failure. I was put off at first by the idea of Tippem. It seemed like I would be a writer beggar sitting on the sidewalk , rattling a can. Now my viewpoint is evolving. I see the Tippem as being similar to a hat that a busker would use for collecting tips while performing for free on aforementioned sidewalk. Thanks for this post.

The way I see it, without the content bloggers provide, its just an empty room. Whether I get paid or not is immaterial as long as I get good readership and good read. That is for them to decide. If they get enough revenue from ad, news agencies, media, they could pay very good writers, that would enrich the environment and act as motivation for some people to work hard and not mess with space.
