Introducing the adverlita…


The handy walking, intuitive coffee cup and milk pitcher, on standby, waiting for those telltale signs that you need a cuppa. The sugar you have to get up and find yourself, for the exercise. (image: carolita johnson)

Down time has given me the opportunity to think about newyorkette and resolve to change a thing or two. Here’s resolution number one. Who needs Google Ads? My little brother used to click on them, hoping to make me some dough. But it turns out multiple clicks by friends and family are against the rules! There’s a name for that! It’s called cheating! I have yet to reach the fifty dollar mark since February when I started newyorkette! My readership are not shopping, and I congratulate them! Who needs half the stuff those ads come up with?

So I’m getting rid of Google Ads this weekend, and plan on creating my own ads. Maybe I’ll do fictional products, or maybe I’ll do real ones for things I like, just like that. Or funny ones about things I don’t like. Why not? Is there a law against it? (If there is, do let me know!)

Above, a rough sketch for an ad promoting a product I think we need. (Okay, a product I need.) So far, I’m calling these ads “adverlitas,” since “madvertisements” is already taken. (Rhymes with “Carolita.”)

    Maybe we should not let the advertising world in on this, but most computer users develop selective sight capabilities that filter out ads, even ones that wiggle and dance. I never noticed your google ads.
    I love the cups. How much are they? Do you accept personal checks?

    I never noticed those ads either.

    Well, then! It’s settled! I’m getting rid of the google ads!
    As for the cups, they’re for free if you can catch them—but they run fast!!
