Concerning Earnings.

I have a few thoughts. They're quick and all about Newsvine Earnings. Daniel Hallo's article made me think about these things, but these are things I've suggested or thought about in the past.

1. Put ads on groups. Why not? Let the group founder/admins publicly announce how that group's earnings are distributed, and give a few options.

2. Allow users who have unwithdrawn earnings to leave "tips" on comments and articles. I'm pleased to vote for something well-written, but sometimes I'd love to vote twice. It would please me if I could donate 5 cents to every really brilliant comment. Seems like it'd be easy to add a "tip" button next to the vote box. Publicly display how much in the way of tips that comment/article has received.

3. Give me the option to display more or fewer adds on my personal column.

What other thoughts do you have?
