I promise to do an actual post soon, as I did do plenty in my weekend to post about… 🙂 In the meantime, you may notice some google text ads placed (hopefully unobtrusively) around my blog. Normally I’m not really pro-ads, but if you see something you’re actually interested in there and click on it, it could help pay the costs of having the website, which is always good. 🙂
Currently it seems to be displaying lots of food recipes… I’m not quite sure where that came from. I thought it was supposed to be relevant. 🙂
I noticed it was displaying ads for some Australian sites and for smilecity.co.nz, so I stopped it doing that. as NZ is not Australia and I don’t think anybody’s website with a smilecity ad on it can really be taken seriously… Most annoying banners ever.
Oh, and if you really object, The adblock extension for firefox is your friend…

So do you expect to actually earn a resonable amount of money from the ads, or is it mainly just for fun? Oh well, I clicked on both of the ads on this page for you. There were chatter-rings in the picture at the top of the “Free blog counter” page advertised (http://www.freewebs.com/free-web-counters/counterpages/index.shtml), but then none of the counters you could choose had chatter rings on them!! I was highly dissapointed… 🙁
Well, those clicks earned me 10c (US) 🙂
mmmm….
Maybe I should consider such a thing…
I could do a lot with 10c.
Well, Webhosting = $6.95 (USD) per month, divided by 30 = approx 23c per day… Earnings from adsense so far today: 21c. Well, would you look at that – I’m almost there! 🙂
