So anywho, the way things are going we are going to run out of room on the screen to post soon.  whistle:

Does the amazon bar on the right respond to what we post I wonder?  eyes:

To be honest I never even noticed it. It's when they add moving images that it becomes a distraction for me

A distraction in the sense that you might click on it accidentally and order loads of stuff?  rubschin:

The Amazon bar, where it is, is costing us some posting space ~ the Google ads are, frankly, not relevant. They have homed in on the pub theme all right but how many of us are really going to buy a pub or bar stools and tabels to go in one?
Certainly the Amazon ads seem to be very responsive to whatever we post ~ which I find a little spooky but I expect we'll get used to them..

Er...Right.

I know you need cash to pay for wedd bandwidth and similar and I dont think anyone objects to the advertising. I would say Amazon bar at the top and bin the Google thingy.

The Google Ads have made us $50 over the past two months.

I agree that the Amazon ads are more relevant and I’d propose that we replace the Google Bar with an equivalent Amazon Bar.

However, Google won’t pay-out ‘til we’ve clicked $100 so if we remove it now the $50 of furious clicking will be lost…  whistle:
