I have a great idea for a website, that probably won't make any money, but it'd still be useful. I have the design all done, but between my career, my failing health, and my family, I don't have the time to create the content. What's the best way to find someone to sit down and write content when there's a very limited budget with which to offer compensation?

I would consider this a passion project – I have one of those www.maplebutter.com. The way I found writers was simple asking and finding others who shared in my passion and vision for the project. Compensation will be recognition and status for being involved with a great site. It’ll require you to sell your idea, but that’s what entrepreneurs do. Good luck with things.
