Selling Out

Astute readers may have noticed a disturbing change to the site.

Yes, I’ve sold out.  I’m now a user of Google Adsense.  You’ll see the ads at the bottom of the sidebar on the right and also on the left side of the footer.  I hope you can understand why I’ve gone to the dark side.  I have no steady income and this site costs money to run.  My lofty ambition is that I’ll be able to pay for domain name registration and web hosting with ad revenues.

I tried to use space that was otherwise wasted.  Let me know if the placement of these ads detracts from your viewing enjoyment and I’ll see what I can do to improve the situation.

Please forgive me.  Please do not forsake this site.  I guarantee that the quality (or wretchedness) of the content will not be significantly affected by this unfortunate, piggish, capitalist, but eminently practical decision.

Note:  The picture shows Marina Bay Sands, one of two casinos in Singapore.  The structure on top was designed to resemble a boat and conspiracy theorists believe it will detach and take the leaders of Singapore to safety when the world floods in 2012.  The hand-like structure near the bottom left is the ArtScience museum, universally reviled as an expensive, profit-focused travesty of a museum.

  1. you should let adult websites advertise on here….

    • yah, at this rate, that’s the only way I’m going to make enough money to pay for the domain name and server space. though, strictly speaking, the server space is donated. but then I could pay back my benefactor!

  2. Don’t feel bad, Chaser! Think of it as a Robin Hood move! :)

    Plus, ooh, coupons for Special K cereal…

  3. moderation? what? Where’s the democracy in that… dam Fascists!

    • oh man, you’d be appalled by the number of spam comments I receive. but yes, I do appreciate the irony.

  4. Where’s your “donate” button?
