I was actually adding more adsense sites until i found this on digg. I wonder what will happen 6 months from now. I hope that everything continues smoothly with all our adsense earnings next year
As the credit crunch hits then it will eventually have a domino effect on Adsense. I have no idea what ratio of offline business advertising they have but you can expect it to be a big chunk. As offline businesses clamp down on their advertising spend it will mean less ad revenue to go around. Consumers are also spending less so they will be clicking on adverts less. All these things come together and you can only expect earnings to go down.

It's not just Adsense but all advertising that will be affected. People are cutting back and advertisers are not going to waste money when nobody's buying. I can see the effect already on my sales since the crunch started.
It's only natural if we all see our earnings going down, but at this stage I believe things are still very calm...
One way or another, as the economy slows down, it's bound to affect net business activities as well. But the true extent of the damage has not yet known until maybe months later. I hope things turn out better.
Very calm? I beg to differ. I can't exactly say things are "OUT OF CONTROL" ATM, but there is a DEFINITE change in revenue online.
the effects of financial crisis may not be obvious today but months from now we will start to realize it...it maybe delayed
