DISQUS

Great interview Craig. I admit, making use of a free business model has certainly helped me to gain readers and exposure to a market that I wouldn't have had access to previously. What are your thoughts?

Thanks Carrie. I'm kind of in two minds about free. In some cases it can definitely work, but in others it can hurt. I'm going to have a more complete post about this in the future, so I'll leave all my thoughts for then.

We are at the crossroads right now between the old media and the new media. we know the old media is dead, but we still are working on ways to make the new media pay us. it's a very exciting time and i think that the FREE model works in some instances and it can be built upon. Take iTunes for example. all mp3s were free and then they made an easy way for people to buy music for cheap. and they do (in countries where iTunes is accessible). micro-payments may work but thats years down the line. and the annie L thing to me sounds like she wasn't very good with her money

Yeah, definitely interesting times. Where it'll all go and eventually end up remains to be seen but for now it's an exciting ride.

Interesting interview & answers. In most cases, I tend to agree with him.
