Sell Out

Yesterday I decided to see what this Adsense business was all about and submitted an application to have ads put on my page (where I choose and with the size, font, colors, etc. all of my choosing) and I’m awaiting an acceptance or rejection email. I think it’s a pretty cool idea, definitely something to further help inspire a better blog, more regular postings*, and even more of me asking you to tell friends about the blog if you think they’ll be entertained by it.

I had to promise not to click on my own ads since there’s a possibility that I’ll get a bit of money per click, so I’ll have to restrain myself but if you happen to see any of the ads that look interesting and want to click on them for further information go right ahead. Anything at all.;-)

They also say that the ads are going to be relevant to the blog, that they’ll somehow find common threads and pick things that are related to the blog and besides obvious candidates like Scene It I’m incredibly anxious to see just what THEY think is a relevant ad to my constantly off topic blog. I think yesterday morning when I threw the gadget in, there was an ad for a bed. Maybe they know something I don’t and are seeing what my readers want and not necessarily what I’m writing about?

Anyway, I’m excited for this to happen, just to see what WILL happen. I have no illusions that this could be a way to make a ton of money or anything like that, I’m just curious what will happen in general.

Anyhoo, this is day seven of November, the seventh entry for the National Blog Month and I think I’m doing pretty well with it so far.

YAY!

Edit: I see I now have an ad about MRI dye lawsuits on my page. Very interesting stuff....
