Making money with my blog?

Someone asked in a comment whether I was making any money from the Google adsense widget on my blog.

Well, actually, yes I am. If I live long enough.

I chose to only have the one ad displayed, so that probably slows the action down. I think I've had Adsense on here for almost a year, and I have the astounding total of $20.06. I won't get a check until the amount reaches $100, though. Let's see, at the rate I'm going, I may receive a check around 2012. By which time inflation will have cut the value of $100 in half.

Oh well, it was only an experiment anyway. And now you know.

Adsense, in case anyone is interested

That little ad to the right isn't going to make me rich, but so far it's earned me a whopping $6.58. That's right, friends and neighbors: my blog is making me money.

Of course, I don't actually receive anything until it reaches $100. But I figure if I live long enough, I'll get paid in, what, ten years or so?

I began it as an experiment. Many people have ads all over their pages, but I only have one, which changes often and is usually farm-related. Finally they quit putting the ad up where you take a test to see what your, ummmm, orientation is. I'm careful what I type because if I use the wrong phrases, it'll be back again. You'll all laugh, I'm sure, if that ad reappears. Don't any of you DARE type that three-letter word that starts with "g" into my comment section! Funny thing is, the entry that caused that ad to appear here was one I deleted shortly after posting it.

There's never a dull moment on the Internet.
