Who reads this blog anyway?

Lots of people - the IMO, ICHO, IPHO, IOI alumni; WPC people… Chessmasters… people who felt they deserved but didn’t make it… the losers from exercise science… pretty much everyone. It feels good to be connected. Sometimes these people notice things I miss… curses! :D

Update: We crossed over 5000 Google AdViews (from Dec. 31) and 13000 Total Visits (from Dec. 5). The number includes the board pages as well.

Perhaps we should all just click the Google ads at random. I do that once in a while. You should disclose financial data for this website.

Interesting! The Google AdSense™ Terms and Conditions doesn't allow Oleg to incentivise. But no one said that visitors can't willingly generate Oleg profits (knowing the paying format). Of course, Google may invalidate our "extra" clicks.

However, in this case, we shouldn't know how much we are generating for him! I'd approximate $20/month with this data (this is bound to grow) - should be more in Canadian dollars (I live in Seattle).

[Quote: should be more in Canadian dollars] Not unless the American dollar keeps on falling.

As for me disclosing financial data, you are horribly mistaken (well actually, I do disclose the PayPal™ donations). I said it many times over and will say again - I make enough money to keep myself happy without your random clicking (even if it is just cola). Just enjoy the site. That said, clicks are welcome.
