Its been a month!?

So apparently its been a month since I last wrote something here. Its not that I’ve been busy, I’ve had time to write, and ideas about what to write about…its just that by the time I get around to writing, I’ve lost the rush that the topic (of the entry) gave me, so I just put it off.
So for about a month I’ve been debating putting ads on the blog, and the other sites that I host. Well, yesterday I finally decided that i would put ads on, at on the blog at first. So I signed up with Google for their AdSense program. I placed one of the smaller ad units here, we’ll see what happens.
For some reason about an hour ago, I decided that I felt like checking how much bandwidth I’ve gone through already. Turns out that the Google bot has gone crazy on the WWWOW site, using up 15.2 MB in one day. Well, long story short, there are now ads there as well.
My point isn’t to make money off of the ads, because I know that it is not likely to happen. If I can make $6.67 a month though, that will be just enough to cover the cost of the domain and hosting for a year. I doubt that I will be making that much, but every bit helps defray the cost.
I have one class tomorrow, so hopefully I will be able to make some time and be able to cross some things of the the “Things to blog about” list…its getting around three post-its, which is a bit long for me.
