    I believe many people here already knew about dzone,
    a new social bookmarking website that's developed for developers.
    This morning, someone created a link to one of my articles..
    the result is unbelieavable.

    My article was submitted at 9 am (my timezone, GMT + 7),
    it's been alive for 9 hours now.. and I've got 70 visitors from it.
    It looks like not over yet..

    But sadly, since most of them were developers (tech savvy),
    none of them clicked on my ads :(
    So far, there are many visitors, but no click.

    I'm sure.
    I'm still monitoring my stats right now,
    and I just can't believe it. There're 10 people accessing my website right now.
    All of them are coming from dzone.

    Yes, there's no problem with it.
    When the US people start their activities in the next 3 hours,
    I don't know what will happen.
    So far I checked, most of my visitors were coming from Asia and Europe.

    I just want to stress out that all these people are tech savvy.
    As we all know, they don't click ads.
    And unfortunately, I monetize my website using Adsense :(
    But yeah, I hope this really is the start of something good :)

    just wanna pay what DP has gave me.
    Okay, here's the latest update:
    so far dzone has sent 113 visitors.. and I just realized that my article has been promoted to their (I don't know what it's called) first page.
    Sadly, so far I got no click.
