First, a quick clarification, by "Readers" I literally mean human beings (not iPad spin-offs). Now, here's what's on my mind ... My daughter is turning 2-years-old in March.  Although she doesn't kn…

Advertising... minutes at a time!

I'd just like to let everyone know that I advertised for (honestly) 7 minutes on a high profile site last night so that I would only spend 6 cents. Yes, I'm that awesome.

What are some ways that I can advertise for free? Anyone out there with some terrific ideas?

I'm wondering if I should release them in a blog format, or if I should set up an html or flash based site. A little feedback on the comic and advice on the website would be appreciated, thanks!
