[TAG] how did it(the webzine) all start?

[MNZ]

Dear TAG,
I am a regular reader and wanted to first thank you for the great zine. I'll
probably be starting my own site/zine (long story short: 'tis all to keep in 
touch with my friends, who I have known for all my life but will have to 
leave them soon). The zine part won't be linux related(except maybe for one
column every now and then). 

I know I talk too much but, my question(s): When LG first started out, how did
you get the readers? How was it publicized? How did you get your very first 
reader? Also any tips (Kat? Ben? team?) ?

One more thing: Write more POLOTMs or else I'll have to resort to violent 
methods!
