On a whim I applied for a Google Adsense account. Since Google sends about 5000 people this way every month the chances are a few of them might click on the ads and if they do it’ll pay for all the time I spend clearing comment spam posted by arseholes trying (and usually failing) to game Google. I just got the account approved. Expect to see textads on the archive pages in the next day or so.
I so sell out!
Whoever invented comment spam should be soundly thrashed, the bounder :p
Sweepstake time! I predict you’ll earn 18.50 per month.
Based on the ads they’re serving so far I predict I’ll earn $5 by Xmas and they’ll send me a US cheque (or check, to be precise) which’ll cost me a tenner to cash.
Still, it’s a big experiment. If it works out I’ll try it on BugPowder and if that works out then BugPowder can expand. Lots of ifs.

Ooh! I made four cents yesterday! Go me!
(btw, and this is very important – don’t go clicking on the ads to do me a favour – only click if you’re really interested. If Google spot any dodgy patterns I’ll get kicked off the program.)
Hi Pete, its Brandi here, was gone for a few monthes, I am back online and happy to see you are still blogging, for some reason I am strangely attracted to your stories, and would miss them should you stop writing.:)
Hi Brandi, welcome back. I kinda missed your random commentings. I’ve been blogging now for over four years and reckon I’ll still be here in another four, so don’t worry there.
Keeping this back on topic – $1.48 in three days. I get a cheque when it goes over $100 so at this rate we’re looking at late March, early April.
