"Popular" is relative. I don't believe we're popular enough for anyone to 
look at us for advertisements. You would have to get thousands of hits 
daily before advertising for "real" money can be considered.

Providing we earn enough money from the advertising. I'd like someone to 
tell me I'm mistaken, but that's highly improbable.

Had we been as popular as yahoo, we would have been represented in every 
computer show in the country with the biggest booth (even bigger than the 
micro$bucks temple), after paying the limousine drivers of all of the 
linux-il members their lunch money.
