April fools do’s and don’ts

Today is April Fool’s day. And you have to read everything with your tongue firmly planted somewhere where it can’t hurt. I came across a number of clever, and not so clever posts.

The most clever so far comes from the 9rules team. They report that they are no longer for sale and it is pretty believable till they link to their SEC filing.

On the other hand, Make Easy Money with Google and AdSense take on it is going to hit it a little too close to home for too many people, and I think the liability for numerous people losing their adsense account because they thought it was genuine is not something I would welcome. Outch!

Last one has me sitting on the fence: Chitika Declares Invalid Clicks Valid. At least, no call for action here.

What’s your pick of do or don’t?

    It is, of course, just a bit of fun. Publishers should always check the AdSense terms and conditions for the final word, of course…
