My understanding is that posting something to the web in ANY form
constitutes publishing for the sake of this. Print publications will
not pay full rates for previously-published material, if they accept
it at all. If you're interested in making money from your content,
you should not post it on the web, except if it is password-protected
and the password only given out to a few select people.
