For the last five days I tried an GoogleAd-heavy theme for the blog. the results? over 1000 impressions and a whopping $0.05 of profit.
Conclcusion: i think ads are really annoying to look at, and unless you’re reallying getting a huge volume of traffic on my site, it’s not worth the few bucks per year that I might gain from it.

In the “southern tier” of New York State—the lush butter-and-egg and grape juice counties along the Pennsylvania line—they all know Frank Ernest Gannett. He is the big newspaperman of the region; owns seven dailies, in Rochester, Utica, Elmira, Ithaca, Newburgh. He is a sort of little Munsey in his way, having consolidated various competing organs to make up his string, always keeping an eye open for fresh opportunities.
He is thoroughly of New York state; born in Bristol, schooled at Ithaca, where he got his start scrivening for the undergraduate Cornell Sun. But he would have been popular with the New Yorkers no matter where he was born. Smooth-faced, graying a little, just 50, his personality is of the kind that makes trade organs like the Fourth Estate lay it on thick about “integrity,” “ideals,” “sincerity,” “inspiring confidence and loyalty” in explaining his “romantic” career. more->

Who sings the song on the toyota prius commerical?
The new 2010 Toyota Prius commercial “Harmony” is part of the “Harmony Between Man, Nature and Machine” campaign. See the commercials:
The artist is Petra Haden, performing the song “Let Your Love Flow.” She does it a cappella!
Not sure if the new “MPG” commercial, but it certainly sounds like the same artist to me!
Background of the Commercial: Prius- You thought it was just animation -It’s all from somewhere else
I also did a post with the link to DOWNLOAD THIS SONG.
Download the mp3:
Song from the Prius “Harmony” commercial available for free download here . Try this link instead. Much thanks, Casey.
Info:
Petra Haden hit pay dirt with the release of Petra Haden Sings: The Who Sell Out in 2005. An a cappella remake of the Who’s classic 1967 homage to pirate radio in England, Haden re-created not only the vocals of Roger Daltrey, but the harmonies of Pete Townshend and John Entwistle, as well as the guitars, drums, and bass of the volatile British band. In a commercial for the 2010 Toyota Prius, Petra Haden performs her version of the 1970s hit “Let Your Love Flow.” Hear Petra in the commercial at toyota.com. She has just finished recording her next solo record, which will be out next year.
So let that feeling grab you deep inside
And send you reeling where your love can’t hide
And then go stealing through the moonlit night with your lover
Just let your love flow like a mountain stream
And let your love grow with the smallest of dreams
And let your love show and you’ll know what I mean it’s the season
Let your love fly like a bird on a wing
And let your love bind you to all living things
And let your love shine and you’ll know what I mean that’s the reason
There’s a reason for the warm sweet nights
And there’s a reason for the candle lights
Must be the season when those love lights shine all around us
So let that wonder take you into space
And lay you under it’s loving embrace
Just feel the thunder as it warms your face you can’t hold back
Just let your love flow like a mountain stream
And let your love grow with the smallest of dreams
And let your love show and you’ll know what I mean it’s the season
Let your love fly like a bird on a wing
And let your love bind you to all living things
And let your love shine and you’ll know what I mean that’s the reason
Just let your love flow like a mountain stream
And let your love grow with the smallest of dreams
And let your love show and you’ll know what I mean it’s the season
Let your love fly like a bird on a wing
And let your love bind you to all living things
And let your love shine and you’ll know what I mean that’s the reason.
This is a very cool intro-page for a site, to give users the option of choosing between html and flash. I prefer html sites but clicking on that little beef patty just seems so wrong when it’s presented like this! :)

This is a quick note on how to install MCImageManager on Drupal 6.xx in combination with TinyMCE and WYSIWYG API editor.
My directory structure is as follows:
sites\all\modules\wysiwyg\tinymce\jscripts\tiny_mce\plugins\imagemanager
So, looking at that structure, you can see that the WYSIWYG API extension needs to be inside the modules folder. TinyMCE needs to be inside of that. And way down the line, the MCImageManager needs to be inside the plugins folder.
Next, you need to edit this file:
sites\all\modules\wysiwyg\editors\tinymce.inc
I added the code that is in bold:
'advimage' => array(
'path' => $editor['library path'] .'/plugins/advimage',
'extensions' => array('advimage' => t('Advanced image')),
'extended_valid_elements' => array('img[src|alt|title|align|width|height|hspace|vspace|border|style|class|onmouseover|onmouseout|id|name]'),
'url' => 'http://wiki.moxiecode.com/index.php/TinyMCE:Plugins/advimage',
'internal' => TRUE,
'load' => TRUE,
),
'imagemanager' => array(
'path' => $editor['library path'] .'/plugins/imagemanager',
'buttons' => array('insertimage' => t('Image Manager')),
'extended_valid_elements' => array('img[src|alt|title|align|width|height|hspace|vspace|border|style|class|onmouseover|onmouseout|id|name]'),
'url' => '',
'internal' => TRUE,
'load' => TRUE,
),
'advlink' => array(
'path' => $editor['library path'] .'/plugins/advlink',
'extensions' => array('advlink' => t('Advanced link')),
'extended_valid_elements' => array('a[name|href|target|title|class|onfocus|onblur|onclick|ondlbclick|onmousedown|onmouseup|onmouseover|onmouseout|onkeypress|onkeydown|onkeyup|id|style|rel]'),
'url' => 'http://wiki.moxiecode.com/index.php/TinyMCE:Plugins/advlink',
'internal' => TRUE,
'load' => TRUE,
),
then go into the wysiwyg api control panel in drupal, choose your input format -> Buttons and plugins and you will have an option to enable image manager.
you will still need to edit the config.php inside the image manager folder to set the authentication. See this page for more details. Basically you will need to make these changes:
$mcImageManagerConfig['authenticator'] = "ExternalAuthenticator";
$mcImageManagerConfig['ExternalAuthenticator.secret_key'] = "thisismysecretkey";
$mcImageManagerConfig['ExternalAuthenticator.external_auth_url'] = "/drupal_6_2/auth_drupal.php";
You will also need to copy the sites\all\modules \wysiwyg\tinymce\jscripts\tiny_mce \plugins\imagemanager\plugins\ExternalAuthenticator \auth_drupal.php file to the site’s doc root, or wherever the drupal installation is (above it is installed in docroot/drupal_6_2)
Design projects created in Adobe Flash® and output in the SWF file format are a new and emerging medium for stock distribution. iStockphoto needs more Flash content, and creating artwork in the SWF format offers another (far-less-crowded and competitive) outlet in which to sell and distribute your creative wares. Anyone who is engaged in creating digital media – be it photography, vector art, animation, motion graphics, video, or sound – should familiarize themselves with Flash creation and output.
