Should you ever give your words away?

As a guy who sometimes (i.e. right now) blogs for free, I was interested to come across this article, in which Columbia Journalism Review editor Ann Friedman makes the case that sometimes, it is OK to write for free.

I am, obviously, with her. I write full time for a living. I also write the odd article for a little extra dough. But the STC Australia Chapter blog is purely on a volunteer basis. I am not even sure that anyone actually reads this stuff. (Hi Dad!)

Do you have a strong position on the issue?
