I really hate Microsoft's Scroogled campaign. It is a feature that Google's computers match keywords from emails with most relevant ads. No people read it. If anybody wants to get mad at a company, it should be Microsoft letting the NSA read our email, Skype, etc. (Microsoft handed the NSA access to encrypted messages) Leave a comment below and let me know what you think.

A thing I don't like.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Google is taking down iGoogle which I use all the time at school. Anybody else think this is unfair? I have been against it since they first announced it. What are they really losing by keeping it up? Do you think it has to do with Apple because they use "i" in everything? Leave a comment below and let me know what you think.

Google's being nice.

I think I might have Google AdSense after all. Tried for the third time on applying and got a half way email back.

A small donation. Still helps.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
First donation was from my grandma. €7.30 which helps because Ireland uses euros. Converted from euros is $9.91 in US currency. $4990.09 to go.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I need to think of other stuff to post about.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lets see, so far I got no donations. Keep being rejected for ads. I have to post an ad on my site to help with the process yet I can't post an ad without my account being valid for ads. Who thought of this shit? Here is the list of things I need to do.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Further detail:
Insufficient content: To be approved for AdSense and show relevant ads on your site, your pages need to have enough text on them for our specialists to review and for our crawler to be able to determine what your pages are about. Fundraiser site at the moment don't really care about what ads display. As long as it doesn't offend anybody.
To resolve this issue, please work through the following suggestions:
- Make sure that your pages have sufficient text - websites that contain mostly images, videos or Flash animations will not be approved.
I can say I did this.
- Your content should contain complete sentences and paragraphs, not only headlines.
Yup.
- Ensure that your website is fully built and launched before you apply for AdSense - do not apply while your site’s still in a beta or “under construction” phase or only consists of a website template.
Finished. Tweaking stuff here or there.
- Place the ad code on a live page of your website. It does not have to be the main page, but test pages that are empty except for the AdSense ad code will not be approved.
Only the blog page for me.
- Provide a clear navigation system for your visitors so that they can easily find all of the sections and pages of your website.
Couldn't be any more simple.
- If you’d like to monetize YouTube videos, please apply for the YouTube monetization program (http://support.google.com/youtube/bin/answer.py?&answer=2490020). Note that blogs and websites that contain only videos will not be approved.
Not on YouTube.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is some of the reasons why its hard to make money on the internet. Ten thousand hoops to jump through. Well I am going to start posting other stuff now. I am still trying to earn money.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am now going to try J-List for my ad source. My Facebook friends and I like them. Crossing fingers on this I don't really want to sign up for many more ad places.

Progress... Maybe...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Been trying to get Google AdSense to work with my blog to help my college overseas fund. Not working out so well. I guess I have to write more. So my posts in my everything blog will be about my progress toward my goal of $5000 for now.
Should also note that you can find me on omightybuggy.tumblr.com which is going back to being a blog for my video games.
