Sorry Michael,

I completely disagree with you. The whole reason I think that we get a higher quality of postings on SI is because SI charges and that there has always been a certain amount of exclusivity (ie the postcards). I'm not sure any amount of SIADMIN BOB types would be enough to stop the type of blatent spam that happens on yahoo -- each time one alias gets killed, another gives birth.

I also question the idea that advertising is the model that will win out on the net. I think people are and will continue to be willing to pay for content that is worth something -- and if free, that quality can only be diluted on SI.
