"Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."
New No problem. I have adblock.
-----------------------------------------
Impeach Bush. Impeach Cheney. Do it now.
New Would rather make voluntary donations...
...As I've done in the past.

I seem to recall that a6l6e6x has scheduled August 1 as the annual Reminder-to-donate-to-iwt day (a la his birthday announcements.) My date could be off, but that's not the point of this post.

"Every Republican who wants to defend Bush on [the expansion of Presidential powers], should be forced to say, 'I wouldn't hesitate to see President Hillary Rodham Clinton have the same authority'."

"Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."
New Note that Google Ads catch drive-bys
People who don't read regularly, but might click on a link while visiting the site.

"Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."
New Indeed, August 1 is IWT "Z" day!

Google ads wouldn't bother me much. I manage to ignore the great majority of ads that don't pop-up.

But, in full disclosure, I own a few Google shares.

New Has Greg posted his USPS address here?
If so, I could use a link to it so I can send a check his way. If not, I hope that he'll email me his address so I can support him (doing my best Bill Murray imitation from "Caddyshack") "ya know, fer the effort!"

(But don't expect a biggie check from a guy who's been out of work 2 years in the past 5).

"Chicago to my mind was the only place to be. ... I above all liked the city because it was filled with people all a-bustle, and the clatter of hooves and carriages, and with delivery wagons and drays and peddlers and the boom and clank of freight trains. And when those black clouds came sailing in from the west, pouring thunderstorms upon us so that you couldn't hear the cries or curses of humankind, I liked that best of all. Chicago could stand up to the worst God had to offer. I understood why it was built--a place for trade, of course, with railroads and ships and so on, but mostly to give all of us a magnitude of defiance that is not provided by one house on the plains. And the plains is where those storms come from." -- E.L. Doctorow

New Go for it.

Stop looking at my signature!
New ditto
Follow your MOUSE
New Nope, as long as they're text only.
When somebody asks you to trade your freedoms for security, it isn't your security they're talking about.
New Not strongly.
Do we have any idea how much $$$ it could potentially raise?

Also, please see [link|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=253400|#253400].

New Google is very cagey about that.
Basically they say, "try it out and see".

"Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."
New Do it.
New Give it a whirl.
Two out of three people wonder where the other one is.
New Does "here" include the twiki?
If the twiki gets significant traffic, Google Ads there might make sense too. As long as others are OK with it, of course.

Cheers,
Scott.

New True
The SCO page spent a couple of weeks in the top spot or two when searching for just "SCO". Until Groklaw came online, I think we were still in the top 10.

[goes and checks ... ]

Well shit! Top three are sco.com, groklaw.net and sco.iwethey.org.

And yes, I'm cool with google ads, too.

New That is a tight line to walk.
I am opposed to "logged in ads" seeing as there are only 200 or so active users.

NOT-logged in. Well that seems to be pretty attractive.

But then again, logged in ads are fine if the intrusion is minimal.

But then the LRPD saying "No ads" will either have to go or be modified
