NEXT STOP, IPO? You may have noticed that the Blogger banner ad, normally situated at the top of the page, has disappeared. The absence of ads is only temporary, however--the first phase of a site overhaul that will shift CONTRAPOSITIVE's financial burdens and potential rewards (such as they are) from the control of Blogger.com over to the custody of your humble narrator.

CONTRAPOSITIVE, in other words, is going for-profit. (Think of it as a newspaper where the editorial side and the business side share a single mind.)

The aim, ultimately--phase two--will be to begin selling viewer eyeballs to the highest bidder. No joke.

Consider yourself forewarned.
