Got the following email from Google Adsense a few minutes ago.

Adsense optimization tip: Go for wider ad units
December 14, 2009
Last week I received an email from the Google Adsense Optimization Team giving me tips on how to supposedly increase my Adsense earnings. I even had to double-check that the email was really from them and not a phishing email.
Anyway, here goes their ad optimization tip.
What’s your Christmas Wishlist?
December 7, 2009
In just a few days, it’s Christmas once again! What’s your Christmas wishlist? What gifts do you want to receive?
I created my wishlist using the Paypal Wishlist application in Facebook. Here’s a screenshot of that wishlist. If there’s anyone who’d like to grant my wish, feel free to send me any of these!
My first Infolinks payment: $182.53
December 4, 2009
In late August this year, we joined Infolinks, an in-text advertising program, and by the end of October we already earned a total of $182.53.
Last week, this amount was deposited to our Paypal account (see screenshot below).
Paid by Blogbank!
December 4, 2009
Last week, I received an email from the Blogbank team that they have already deposited my earnings from them. I checked and it was indeed credited to my bank account already.
This explains why the title of this post ends with an exclamation point (Paid by Blogbank!), as opposed to my other Blogbank article which asked, Got paid by Blogbank? Apparently, I was wrong to ask that question before because I was already paid and I just didn’t check my account!
Blogging as source of passive income
December 1, 2009
It feels weird making a new blog post after almost three weeks of resting. Yes, it’s been almost three weeks since I made my last post (see Free magazines for Filipinos posted on November 15).
This posting hiatus happened for two reasons. One, I went to Singapore and Indonesia from November 17 to 23 and I hadn’t got the time to make any new blog post while I was away.
The second, more important reason was that the posting break was actually an experiment of mine. I was trying to check if blogging can indeed give passive income, and this I did by comparing my Google Adsense income before and after my last blog post.
Here are the results of this experiment.
Philippine Economic Briefing schedules
December 1, 2009
Last week, we received an email from Mr. Claro Fernandez of the Investor Relations Office (IRO) of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) requesting us to help promote the upcoming economic roadshows of the Philippine Economic Team.
The Economic Team, led by the Secretary of Finance, is comprised of the Secretaries of Budget, Trade and Industry, Agriculture and Energy departments and the National Economic Development Authority (NEDA).
We show our support for this endeavor by inviting PMT readers to attend these roadshows.
