Sorry about that. Shortly after I posted it, some copyright lawyer with too much time on his hands had it removed. I found a shorter version of the same vid, which apparently the copyright lawyer didn't seem to mind being on YouTube. So it should play now.
Adsense is a waste of time. I had it on my old Lima News blog and got three clicks in six months.
I don't remember the exact number. But I was getting quite a few more than just "5 or 6" on my Lima News blog. I guess I don't quite get the Adsense thing. I just can't imagine being tempted to click on one.
Well, granted I was kidding with the "5-6" thing...however, given that 1% is considered a solid average clickthrough rate, you're definitely not going to get rich unless you have a TON of visitors.
In my view three kinds of clicks happens on adsense ads: Accidental ('I bumped the mouse'), Tech Stupid('I thought it was an in site link!'), and finally good Samaritan('John has a family...here let me buy you lunch').
So you really need to have a lot of klutzes, old people, and close friends to make it worth your while.

Hey John - am I stuck at the intellectual level of a 7th/8th grader and can't figure out how to play the clip, or....
BTW - that was a rhetorical question, and really doesn't need answered. :)
John....where is all the useful content!?
Now you've resorted to uploading broken vidoes...
I promise that if you start writing more and hook adsense into your site I'll click on your banners every 3 minutes. ;)
^^^ proven business plan.

So, yea, the video is broken for me too.
I have a much better plan. It's almost finished...

Well when you only have 5-6 people reading you don't get a ton of results.
One of my sites gets 40,000 unique visits/month. Adsense works very nicely for that one. :)

Although the earth will run out of oil in 50 years, there is no foreseeable shortage of people in the first two categories.
