That really is just a fantastic idea btw. Honestly, as long as the don’t make sound you should put another one, especially if you are giving some to charity.

Good luck! Seth I’d agree with what Arj Says i.e. find one classy sponsor that would allow you to be sure that the ads weren’t intrusive and match the (wonderful) nature of the site’s content.

Good luck!

If it generates more cash, more power. Also the charity idea is an awesome one. ONE SENTENCE ROCKS!! I didn’t even notice the ads till you mentioned it. If it generates more cash, more power.

Keep up the good work. If the ads help pay the bill and don’t overwhelm the clean look of the site, who can complain?

Perfect sized, not distracting at all! The donation to charity is a really neat idea. One Sentence rules, fo'eva. I think it’s great. Perfect sized, not distracting at all!

You should would be lucky to MAKE ten or twenty bucks an night! Your tasteful use of text ads to help pay for your web hosting is perfectly acceptable to me.

I think your choice of non-intrusive ads was a good one, and no one can fault you for trying to pay for your bandwidth. However... another idea might be to find maybe one sponsor relevant to onesentence, who is willing to trade payment of your bandwidth costs for a permanent, classy, fitting advertisement... But either way... I love onesentence! Wow… you are probably the most up front person I’ve seen on a blog in terms of whether or not to post ads.
