Tam sells out!

AdSense.

I feel so cheap. Next comes the tip jar... (Advice from anyone who has successfully fiddled with ads & whatnot are always appreciated.)

Hey, hopefully this visit to Oleg's will generate some gun pr0n for more essays at the other blog when I get home, and people will be so amazed at the new content there that they will say "You should get paid for writing!" and then, you know, actually do so. (Assuming I has teh intarw3bz there again.)

The current ad is asking for donations to help Gulf Hurricane victims. That was what, two years ago? If you're not on your feet by now do society a favor and crawl in a hole to die.

Therein lies the danger of rotating ads, you never what's going to pop up on your site. Can't say as I blame you for wanting a nickel or two for your trouble though.

The best part about Adsense is that the ads are often the exact opposite of your message. It's ironical and hilarious.

At Bullshido.net, where the mission statement is to expose frauds in the martial arts and encourage real sparring, full-contact and full-speed pressure-testing to separate out the McDojos and the charlatans, most of the ads are for people who want to teach you to:

* Live forever--literally--by practicing chi gong.

* NEVER FEAR THE NIGHT! LEARN THREE MOVES TO DESTROY ANY ATTACKER--BEFORE THE GOVERNMENT ASSASSINATES ME FOR REVEALING THESE ELITE SECRETS!

* Make a million dollars as an instructor for GO KAN RYU in six months!
No experience required.

* Send me money! I like to bet on the ponies! Also I'll teach you to break coconuts or something.

Couple things:

first, if you want blogads, shoot me an email.

two, tweak your template so that your comments show up on a blogger page and not a standalone comment page. this will increase visitor counts and, of course, add to ad revenue.
