This is not a plea for me, as in the grand bloggy scheme of things I do fine and, besides, George Soros has already offered to put a second level on the roof deck, but you may have noticed that there have been fewer than normal blogads populating the various sidebars of the lefty blogosphere. And while blogging doesn't provide the primary income for very many, it does provide that little extra for a lot of bloggers which helps justify the time they spend to themselves and families, or helps to get them through to the end of the month.
So consider dropping a few pennies into the tip jar or paypal account of your favorite bloggers if you've got a bit extra.
