A buddy of mine has put together an adsense blog that is a great reference for newbies as well as people that are already in the adsense game. He has helped me out greatly and maybe he can help some DP members out as well with it. Most of the stuff will probably be basic at first but he stated that he will be adding more info as the weeks go along. I told him I would try to promote it a little. Check out www.googleadsensetipsandhelp.blogspot.com.
I don't know if it's just the blogger format but you may want to get him to use more paragraph breaks.
That's funny, your buddy promotes MFA's. In fact he spams his own blog with a ton of garbage MFA links. blech! Also, he has the words "google adsense" in the URL. Maybe something has changed, but I thought this was not allowed. Tell your buddy thanks but no thanks.
My advice - ask your buddy to write a lesson about blending and be sure he practices what he preaches
