Hello! How are you today? It's only that i enjoy your site so much, and that i think you could start making alot of loot using it. I have a few thriving sites that i started making some cash from recently. They are using something called a content revealer widget, that makes guests fill out a survey inorder to unblock special content or to download files that they want. And each time they do a quick survey i make about a dollar. Really cool eh? Been earning alot more from this than adsense!! Feel free to email me, or you can check it out through my link. www.tinyurl.com/yevwfst, Kind Regards, Hennrik P. Hanson
