Like Roy, we’ve decided to experiment with Google Adsense ads on our homepage.  There are a lot of things we could do around here with a little cash, such as upgrade our hosting account, so we thought, why not?

Actually, we do everything around here by a voting process on our member forums.  It’s pretty cool - if we have a decision to make, we just put up a poll, and go with a 2/3 majority vote.  We put up the question “should we do a trial of adsense ads” and guess what?  86.7%  of us thought it would be a good idea.

So we’ve got ads on our home page, and our aggregate blog page.  Any revenue from these ads will go into a fund to support improvements here at CodeBetter.Com.  We figure that most people view our syndicated RSS anyhow, with no ads, so this won’t even been seen by our loyal readers, right?  

We’re not putting these ads on individual’s blogs, but you may see ads on our member’s blogs as well.  These ads you see on an individual’s blogs are not funding improvements at CodeBetter.Com – any revenue made from these ads belongs to the blogger.

As always, let us know what you think, and how we’re doing in general around here!
