AdSense and a bit about how I like Google.

You see, the thing about Google products is they work, and they work well. They aren’t overly complex, at least not for the user, and they are just easy to get working.




I just plugged in some Adsense stuff and it was pretty damn easy. I had a bit of an annoying time wondering why the heck the ads weren’t showing up. I finally realized I had to turn off Adblock Plus because the Adblock .Filterset.G Updater seems to install something to block all
Google ads. Not something I wanted, since Google ads don’t actually bother me and are sometimes even useful. So I guess I have to whitelist that.




I’ve also recently enabled Google Analytics, but am still waiting for data to show up. Looks neat so far though. I’m quite impressed with how well all of this is put together and how straight forward all the instructions are.
