Google adsense good or bad ?

As many of you know, google became the greatest marketing tool in the internet. Why ? Because it offeres each and every one of us the opportunity to start an online business. Its that simple. Just start a website with good content and in time, your ads will pay back. The ads google generate are based on the content of your website, for instance if your website is about fishing, the ads will show offers on fishing trips or bait tips

The flaw in this system is that the ads sometimes go crazy ( really crazy ) and display ads that sometimes make you laugh very hard.

For instance :
The website was about programing in c++ and I got and ad in german about "killing", and also written in bad german.

That's marketing !

How to add/modify background in your blog

Now this is maybe one of the easy stuff. Just follow the following steps:

1. You can upload the background file to free host site like http://photobucket.com/ or http://imageshack.us
2. Log in to Blogger
3. Go to Template then Edit HTML
4. Locate the ‘body’ CSS.
5. After the open parenthesis {, click enter to open a new line
6. add the background code like the line below in bold:

body {
background: url(”http:xxx.jpg”) repeat;
margin:0;
text-align:center;
line-height: 1.5em;
font: x-small Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Arial, Sans-serif;
color:$mainTextColor; font-size/* */:/**/small; font-size: /**/small;
}

7. Save the template and view your blog.

The ‘repeat’ function tells blogger to repeat the background patten horizontally and vertically.

To repeat only horizontally, put ‘repeat-x’ or ‘repeat-y’ for only vertically.
