Well my ShoppingAds trial is over. In 7 days, I made $0.00. I think you’d have to agree, that’s not the greatest return.

From what little I understand, Japanese TV is [...]

When I first started using Project Wonderful, my intention was to place a few of the 125×125 pixel ad spots in the top section of my sidebar.

There are those people that walk among us that possess gifts. Talents beyond those of the average person.
With their voice, and their voice alone, they are able to transform the most stale, putrid, dull and/or lifeless movie trailer into something that may just be worth watching.

YouTube is a goldmine, and what good is mining gold if you can’t share it with the towns people. Granted, this nugget isn’t going to appeal to everyone, but you can’t please all of the towns people all of the time.
