walking down the boardwalk… cool, in the 40s. flying solo this afternoon, listening to fred sing ‘monster in my pants’ but with one headphone out in case of pedestrian danger. I love cool, crisp days like this. Now continuing on to seek kitty-knots to keep warm.

Newton caught leaping from the left at the last possible moment before leaving frame this morning.
99- again, no more adsense.
I was interested in trying out google ads on livejournal – I had dropped adsense once, years ago, because they were behaving erratically, and were serving ads that I didn’t want served. (primarily MLM – scam type stuff, and possible pronography.)
Since then, I had heard that they had cleaned up thier act a bit, so I figured I’d try it with the supposed opportunity of lj linking to them.
Over the last 3-4 weeks I got more than a couple of hits, maybe $10-20 worth of coin… and then this morning I find out that my account was suspended.
Why?
Here’s the quote –
account has posed a significant risk to our AdWords advertisers. Since
keeping your account in our publisher network may financially damage our
advertisers in the future, we’ve decided to disable your account.
Please understand that we consider this a necessary step to protect the
interests of both our advertisers and our other AdSense publishers. We
realize the inconvenience this may cause you, and we thank you in advance
for your understanding and cooperation.
That’s a laugh – My journal recently has been little more than pictures of kittens and the occasional entry of content.
I’ve since removed them from all of my entries, and if asked, I’ll heartily recommend yahoo ads over google adsense any day.
