You've probably noticed the links and ads on the Right-hand column of the site: for the few of you who actually visit the site using a browser that is, the vast majority use RSS readers so won't see them at all... I'm really just experimenting with these things to see:
1. if they actually generate any kind of income
2. to see how the schemes work
They're actually pretty interesting and I don't think they're that obtrusive, the Google adsense ones work as an IFrame and are targetted towards what they see as the site content - which seems to be RSS inclined at the moment...guess it's just a blogging thing, surprised there's not more ASP.NET stuff really. The Amazon ones are not that popular (the Google ones have had WAY more clicks in the one day they've been there) - which is a shame because they took more effort to get up there. Anyway, sorry if anyone finds the concept of this type of ad offensive...but...umm...I get some things up here for download to make up for it (once I get the aforementioned code formatting stuff sorted...)
