YAY! PIMP ADS!

I just couldn't help but be amused by the Google ads that came up when I clicked the link to my post on how to get on my WANTON LINK WHORING blogroll:

"Personalized Pimp Cups"

1 So what do we have to do with these ads so you can earn some cash? Just click on them? I can teach Kiki that.

2 Yeah, they're pay-per-click. If you're actually curious, you can click on them, even if it's just for your own amusement (not the ones in the post itself, that's just a screenshot). However, I'd prefer that you don't click on them repeatedly, since Google monitors for suspiciously rapid ad-clicking. And I don't even encourage gratuitous clicking. I need to get an honest feel for what kind of revenue generation these things are actually capable of, so that I can figure out where these things fall in the grand scheme of Pro-Blogging. For example, if I could make more selling the space directly to other bloggers or using it to pimp my own Cafe Press merchandise (coming soon...ish), I'd like to know that. But I *do* appreciate the thought :-)

3 Ok, these Google ads are just scary--right now there's three on how to stop procrastinating, one for a Life Makeover, and a Free Bible Download (Easy and 100% Legal)...

4 Hey, now that you are getting paid for links, that truely makes you a link-whore. Instead of just the link-slut you used to be. :-P (By the way, you might want to post your really funny stuff here first before posting it over at IMAO. Give readers an excuse to come here after filling up on Frank J.'s funny. Just a thought...)

5 Oh, and this morning, the ads are for three blogging services an anti-Bush site, and "Great deals on Liberal Blog Shop" You don't get to pick the ads, do you? Everybody! It's a Goooooogle-ad watch!

6 Yeah, I got the "Anti-"w" bumper stickers, and Liberal blog shop ones too... Which is why my blog will get shut down for lack of funds before I ever include random advertising.... Then again there's a kind of poetry about those punks making Harvey money...

7 Uhhhh I got the anti-bush ad, the sexy-girl, sexy-guy ad, the how-to for bloggers ad, liberal blogging ad, and blogging evolved ad. Nope, didn't go to one of them. Thought about maybe the How-to... but you already taught me that. ;-)
