If we can make some money from sponsorhips or sales of Buzzword Bingo
merchandise, that's gravy right now (although this may not be the case
as the site matures).

Our book on Buzzword Bingo, which will tentatively be titled just that,
is coming out this November. Random House is publishing it, and it is
co-authored by Ben Yoskovitz, our Buzzword Bingo guru, and Lara Stein of
Microsoft and iXL fame.

Like all of our internal project sites (previously, Net Worth/Weeb Tech
at http://www.meep.com/magazine/ ), we expect these projects to pay off
in terms of sales leads captured.

BuzzwordBingo.com in its first week provided us with two Fortune 1000
leads -- leads that wouldn't have given us the time of day otherwise.

So long as the leads keep coming in, we'll be happy with that.

It also helps to be a bit nuts :)
