What??? No ads? No Google Adsense? No affiliates? No paid product reviews? That’s right. I have been in this game for a long time and I have been down that affiliate road before and I can honestly say it serves no one better than the company for whom you are advertising. $30 dollars a year from Adsense just makes me $0.003/hour whore and I personally think I am worth more than that.

In my experience, making friends is more important than making money, and in the end, making friends makes you more money anyhow. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not like I am doing this blog for completely altruistic reasons. I do want to share my knowledge and speed tricks with the greater computing community, but I do also want to generate more exposure for myself and my friends. But I don’t want to cheapen the experience by inundating you with blinking banners and devious, seemingly innocuous text links.

So what you see is what you get. Just me and the things I do, with the tools I use, doing the things I like… fast. What you won’t see and what you won’t get are paid reviews, cut and paste promo regurgitation, links to sites that have some unique id embedded in them, and all that other crap that usually clouds over otherwise great content.

Furthermore (did I actually say that?), my articles, tutorials, reviews, news and views will be my own, and as often as permissible, I will refrain from rehashing the words of other writers about the same item of interest. I hate hopping from review to review, article to article, news post to news post where everyone has just copied what the last guy said like some digital telephone game.

Nuff said.
