Hey! You like breathing air right? Lets make sure our kids and their kids get to do the same by cutting down on emissions together.

You can start by picking up a green friendly shopping bag like the one we just had pressed up for you (shameless isn’t it?). For just under $15.00, you can tote around our original dismembered logo while running your errands.

The money you spend on this and other great products from our selection at our shop will help to pay our hosting bills and improve our service to you from this and other blogs in our network.

And expect a phone call? Google Adsense now requires phone verification and users must enter a pin number sent to them by good old fashioned snail mail. I just got off the phone with who I can only assume was Mrs. Google and she sounded quite pleased to hear the beeps of my dialing pad when I entered my verification number. Now all that is left is to wait for the pin number to come in the mail. It kind of makes me wonder what’s next, but as long as this gets my payments off of hold, I’m not one to complain.

This is said to be another way that Google can improve service and support for Adsense users. I also read recently that a domain must now be over 5 days old before it qualifies to make money from Adsense. This is Google’s attempt to weed out those who register domains for a five day grace period (offered by some registrars) to test out how profitable the domain can be and then dumping it if they don’t make enough. Read more about it in Bob Ritchie’s post about domain tasting.
