    *cough* sell out *cough*

    Kidding, but I thought bandwith was dirt cheep these days. Have you had a large growth in traffic?

    Enjoy your $2.53! I know I will. When I eventually learn enough for them to actually cut me a check.

    Woot!

    Heh, yeah, it’s more to track traffic than to actually make money.

    Corpnews is doing the same thing now.

    Damnit, why does pop need to copy everything you do?

    Actually I copied him.

    > now i can read broken toys and have sexy curly hair!

    And I bet you could find erectile dysfunction medicine too! (posts and checks to see what ads show up)

    I rolled four hair care ads and an invitation to view videos of torture and forced confessions at Guantanamo.

    Condoleezza Rice
    Get celebrity information from the past and present

    I think that’s my favourite. Amusing concoction brought about by a ridiculous advertising model, or telling Swiftian commentary on the state of current affairs, who knows!

    Dang, I don’t get anything cool. It just keeps coming up “blog”, “blog”, “blog”, “ringtones”, “blog”. :(

    Honestly,

    I have a website that gets only 500,000 ad impressions a month and barely generate 20 bucks a month with a CTR of 0.1% with Adsense. Your best bet. ESPECIALLY, with the contacts youhave in the game design field would be to sell directly to advertisers.

    Haircare and torture here, too. Tres Creepy what google spiders see in your site, Sir Lum.

    I’m amazed that there are Lum readers who don’t use FF with adblock. It’s amazing how much shit is out there when I have to use IE.

    By using adblock you deny me my rightful $0.03!

    Yes, but we had it first.

    pretty creepy what ads you are getting n_n

  21. #21 by Nicademus on April 17th, 2006

    No worries Scott, I disabled Adblock and even clicked on the creepy curly hair ads. So if there is a clickthrough bonus its all yours!

  22. #22 by Soulflame on April 17th, 2006

    I see no ads. :(

  23. #23 by krones on April 17th, 2006

    lum needs +1 bagel, I click on hair ads! this quest sucks, fuckity lum.

  24. #24 by tazelbain on April 17th, 2006

    I usually don’t start disabling ads until they start flashing or take up to much of the screem

    I yanked them. Sadly I could never figure out how to turn on death/war/chaos and they added a layer of sleaze that $2.50 a day wasn’t enough to wash clean.
