Kindo’s getting noticed
Published September 28, 2007 blogging , friends , kindo , marketing 0 CommentsI’ve added text ads to Glissers, mostly because I wanted to learn more about how Google Adsense works. It took me 20 minutes to include the code on the site - amazingly easy to do. Here’s how it looks.
