    You might have seen an update in ads in the header now.

    With the giant jump in traffic, usage and everything else, I'm going to try to recover some of the costs i pocket for the hosting, mobile licenses (ios , android, windows and blackberry) and other services.

    Before we were making pennies with the ads (seriously pennies)

    If you have adblock, and want to give back to the site, it would be greatly apperciated if you turned it off for this site, If not not a problem.

    Any feedback you have on this or anything related to this my ear is always open.

    Thank you

    Did you like that TVA article on Jacques Corriveau, Tino? Hopefully he gets put away for a long time.

    Do we need to click on the ads for the site to make money on them or does just unblocking them work?

    Clickthroughs will provide more money to him if you see something you like and purchase it. Also, should look into an Amazon Affiliate program too Tris and run some Amazon ads.

    Seriously.. just click the ads. It's not 2001, you won't get 40 pop ups. It takes you the the website, that you can quickly shutdown, done, money in the bank.
