Anyhoo - like all good blogspot accounts - I'm being offered a chance to cash in on all the content I'm producing here through the magic of Google Adsense. Just think - I could be talking about the popcorn I burned or another short story from Indieblogger and you'll have ads for Orville Redenbacher and Amazon pop up right next to you. All hail the magic of relentless adverse-tising!
Why, look at that - I have coined a word. "Adverse-tising!"
Anyhoo - I'm never going to discuss politics here. I thought that might a refreshing break from the screaming demon monkeys that populate the airwaves and print. The closest I'll get is stuff like this: do I want to become just another tired vehicle for people to advertise their garbage with or do I want to retain some measure of control in this little virtual space? I think back to a great mp3 I got somewhere of Howard Stern explaining to his staff how he feels about cashing in on his own celebrity. However you feel about him, you did get the sense that he was passionate about not being 'just another dog with a $#@$ t-shirt!'. He said that, almost verbatim.
So - I'm skipping the 'confirmation' mail that Adsense sent out. We'll talk later after we determine how powerful (or not) what I have to say is.
