We're looking for local businesses that would like to sponsor our "Olyblogger of the Month" program by donating gift certificates or goodies. The current sponsor will be acknowledged on the blog with an icon that would run for the month of sponsorship (something like the Zhonka block on the left).

What should be the value of the donation?
Submitted by The Original Yoda on Sun, 04/27/2008 - 10:44am....$25?
$50?
$100?
I'd say not more than $50...
Submitted by Rick on Sun, 04/27/2008 - 11:15am....which should be more than worthwhile in terms of exposure. We get something in the neighborhood of 100k page loads a month.
