I'd like to give some small, free ad room on my site to a worthy gaming-related endeavor. I do ok for a gaming blog on daily hits, so hopefully it will push some traffic towards whatever's selected. I want to shy away from any specific gaming company, I think. Thoughts on who should be considered for this, and why?

When and if it actually comes around, the OpenD6 site would be a good candidate.
Could I humbly suggest my own site - www.ageoffable.net ?
It has a 'gamebook' style game (also called Age of Fable), and a collection of free RPG resources like a random dungeon generator, a collection of random tables, and so on.
It's all free and non-profit, and the game has gotten good responses from all 'schools' of gamers - it's one of the few things to be praised on the Forge and Dragonsfoot.

Thanks, guys! I'm thinking of working something rotational out. Looking at some html for it right now...
I would love to see my game, Adventures in Oz, get a little more publicity. It's over at http://ozrpg.50webs.com or your can check out my blog (updated every Thursday) at http://fdouglaswall.blogspot.com
As much as I'd love to see the games I'm working on get publicity (zzarchov.bravehost.com, both free!), beyond that disgraceful plug I too would suggest the free RPG blog or its Thousand Monkeys Thousand Typewriters site, it provides a valuable service for free. In the same category, Pen and Paper Games has a nice free game finder system to help gamers find groups, that would also do well.
Just some thoughts to throw out there.
Thanks to everyone for the kind suggestion of my blog. I'd add Age Of Fable and the RPG Haven to the list. Also, any competitions that you like the look of that might be running.
Oh, another one I'd like to see get more traffic and one I visit lots and lots is John Kim's list of free rpgs. It remains the best directory of free stuff on the web.

He's not exactly hurting for traffic, but www.seventhsanctum.com is a great generator site that I haven't heard mentioned too much in the RPG community. It's mostly aimed at writers, but I've found the gens helpful for my games. It might be helpful to your readers to get the word out.
I also have a ton of RPG-related gens at my own site (link in name), if that's the sort of thing you feel like advertising.
