Google Adsense

I just signed up for googleadsense to see if i can make any money from having a blog. As of now only 2 people know about my blog, loris and SAyao. I don't want people who know me to frequent my blog. It's way more exciting to have an audience following my blog whom I don't already know. Complete strangers who find my stories interesting. I don't think anyone will find my blog interesting at the moment. But I wana see if I can make it so. Maybe I'll delete my previous posts and start again. This is so characteristic of me. Anyway, it is kind of like an experiment. To see if blogging can be lucrative. So far I've read that it's not. But then again I'm not a full-time blogger, and this shall just be a side experiment if you know what i mean. Fellow scientists might know what I mean. Like when you're working on a project you hope is worthy of a Nature publication, and you get some stray unexpected results that you think can form a smaller project so you just dabble in it at the side for backup. At least that's what PIs or postdocs do. Now, I'm just struggling to finish my own little project...and hopefully, finally, publish. gawd is it hard to publish. I WANT TO PUBLISH. i've got to admit sometimes that the loris is just way smarter than me. Puts in half the effort, and gets one first author paper and a patent within that one year of RA. I work weekends, and can barely throw together enough data for a publication. Tis life..
