Chitika publishers see drastically reduced earnings after audits: I got in after the hump, maybe well after the hump (the hump being the huge rush of people trying out Chitika for their adserving needs). I personally made little to no money right from the beginning and frankly should have known that this would be the outcome. Chitika had piss poor results for my blog with their text ads and their eMiniMalls returns have now fallen to those levels. Long live Chitika, Chitika is dead. There is enough money to be had in this business that if you create a little buzz in the industry, you can rope in enough people to start making you some money. I should really resurrect that open source text link ad app (to be able to sell ads independantly and dynamically on your blog, accept payments via PayPal) I was putting together.

PS: What is up with everyone selling their (successful) blogs??

Mouse-less Firefox: On the eve of a new release of Firefox (1.5) check out this nicely written, resourceful article on useing Firefox without touching your mouse. One of my coworkers is a BIG keyboard advocate and thanks to his association, I have started to use a lot of very useful shortcuts. Coding is SO much easier when you dont have to move your hands to touch the mouse.
