p2pnet news Advertising | P2P:- "Once upon a time, p2pnet was online thanks wholly to what were then five independent companies marketing P2P file sharing applications," we posted yesterday.
But, due to the anti-p2p, anti-file sharing efforts of Warner Music, EMI, Vivendi Universal and Sony BMG and their RIAA, all but one —- Blubster —- pulled their ads.
Since then, thank to an anonymous supporter who’s been keeping p2pnet alive month-by-month, and to Blubster / Piolet’s Pablo Soto over in Spain, I’m still publishing,
However, to stay online, I need to develop an independent source of income. And that means advertising.
I’ve been lucky enough to find Ken Baron, an experienced advertising professional who’ll be handling p2pnet ad sales.
As I say here,I’m planning to use the income to do things such as hire at least one other person to help me. (And two would be even better 
)
The specific story sections will be open to advertisers who want to tell people about what they do, or what they have to offer, in an honest way.
I also say, “No information, other than the responses to the questions, is being gathered. There’s no sneaky data collection going on here.” This is to help Ken collect thumbnails of typical readers so he can tell possible advertisers about the kind of people who visit the site.
The survey only takes 20-30 seconds —- literally —- and it’d be a huge help if you’d fill it in.
Cheers! And thanks … Jon

That is one ugly survey form you have there, and it scrolled off the screen.
I was going to fill it in, but it’s too much of an assault on the eye!
Sorry.

^^ Sorry about your eye(s). I’m not a coder (as you’ve already figured out) and I’m looking for feedback, not to impress folks with my technical wizardry
Thankfully, a lot of people have chosen to ignore the form’s (and my) shortcomings and to them, THANKS !!!!! MUCH APPRECIATED !!!
Cheers!
