mcgees.org has officially sold old. Discuss.
I actually experimented with Google Adsense for a bit (you may have seen it briefly), but, to be honest, the main reason I’m opting out is all the Christians and New Agers who try to advertise on my atheism posts. Who needs a free market when you can have, say, a publisher-slash-dictator (me)?
So all the banner ads you see will be personally vetted by me. Many of the companies I have personal relationships with and can recommend, and would have anyway. The others seem above-board and useful. I try to tailor the ads to topics visitors of my site might be interested in. I need your help to tell me if I need to yank an advertiser, due to a bad experience you have with them. I don’t expect this to happen. But click-through revenue is not worth sending my readers on bad leads.
Seriously, discuss. Do the ads bother you? Enough to stop visiting?

So does that mean you’ll put adds up for my site?
You can tosome levelcontrol the ads coming from adsense. Use the control panel (in google adsense) to filter the ads.
I hadn’t noticed the ads before you pointed them out. If I had, I would have assumed that they were always there.
So, no, it doesn’t really bother me.
As long as you’re not *completely* selling out and going for pop-ups. The banners are fine – one per page is nothing
