Advertising?

By yaohong | Published: December 19, 2008
I have been approached by a few parties this month to put up advertising on the blog. As most of you have noticed, I do not serve any ads and I intend to keep it this way. It’s really a battle between my bank account (which is pretty empty now) and my desire to keep [...]
