[edit] Did Osburn Sell Out?

Year Ending	Dollars
2007 Feb 28	33.74
2008 Feb 29	54.31
2009 Feb 28	39.85
Total	$127.90

Or, "What are these stupid ads doing on these pages?"

The short answer is yes, I sold out. I'll might make enough to pay for one month's ISP bill each year. Frankly, I'd be surprised if Google didn't tell me to take a hike for lack of activity. (For the record, I pay $7.95/month for webhosting and $60.92/month for DSL at home.)

The long answer is that I'm trying to learn something about Internet economics. Google says I can make money by putting a little text box or two on my web pages. I see only one way to find out whether that model is viable, and here it is. Be sure to say "Hi" when you see me at the teller machine!

(Your reaction to this is part of the experiment. Feel free to drop me a line at co149 [whirlpool] mac [spot] com telling me what you think. Be sure and tell me why you think the way you do. The deeper you dig into yourself the less likely I will be to roundfile your email. If you hate webpage ads, don't just say "I hate webpage ads." Say "I hate webpage ads because I feel [blank]." Make it personal, OK?)
