Thanks for the insight. I&#039;m with you: blog writing does help me clarify my thoughts and solidify my goals. I suppose that when I get to 20k visits, the income question will be more relevant. :) Congrats to your wife!</description>

		<description>@Boomer: Thanks!  

Well I&#039;m certainly not generating lots of income from this site, but I am generating a little by the occasional click on the AdSense ads.  About $10 in January.  By far, the bulk of the online income has come from my wife&#039;s site which gets about 20K visits a month now.  She&#039;s been blogging for over a year and we&#039;ve experimented a little with ad placement -- both for aesthetic reasons and income reasons.  We&#039;ve tried AdSense, Amazon referrals, Commission Junction, LinkShare, and LinkWorth and honestly, the only ones that seems to be consistent for us are AdSense and LinkWorth.  But what works for us may not be right for you.  I&#039;d suggest experimenting with programs and layouts until you hit upon something that works for you.

By the way, I would say that income generation from this blog is not my main goal.  Yes it helps contribute to our GI portfolio, but I&#039;m more trying to build a record of my thoughts and get organized on tasks at this point.</description>

		<description>Hey D. -

Congrats on your progress. Being the blogger noob that I am, I&#039;m curious about your blog income. I know you&#039;re blog is relatively new so I&#039;m impressed you&#039;re generating ANY income from GI. If you&#039;re so inclined to share your  methods, I&#039;d like to know what you&#039;ve done to date.
