Instead of asking for handouts to keep the site going, why doesn't Evolver/RS provide a service that would bring ad revenue and more traffic to the site. A dating site. Hear me out on this one. Even a free dating site like plenty of fish pulls in a lot of ad revenue. And it is more popular than much fancier pay sites (Alexa rating 106 in the US and 341 worldwide).

Somebody needs to create one of these.

Hi,

I'm putting out an open call for anyone who would like to collaborate with me on a graphic novel. I am not an artist, but a writer. I would like to turn the novel I have worked on for the past few years into a graphic novel and would like to meet artists in the new york area.

Because of New York City's budget cuts city librares will soon reduce hours and layoff workers unless the city realizes the value of public libraries. Brooklyn Public Library, my current employer, will most likely layoff 175 employees and reduce hours down to 1-6pm mon-fri by the summer.
