Is writing about Adsense against the TOS?

    Question: Can you have a blog where you write about various affiliates, including Adsense, and write in-depth about Adsense -- say, how it works, what it is, etc, WITHOUT EVER MENTIONING YOUR OWN ADSENSE ADS OR TELLING ANYONE TO CLICK ON THEM -- would this be against the Adsense TOS?

    I.e. Can you write about Adsense while running Adsense, if you never mention your own Adsense ads? I'm fully aware that you can't mention your own ADsense ads (as this might convince people to "help you out" by clicking on them), but I'm wondering if you can write about how Adsense works, things along that line, at all?

    I am sure there are at least 902,543 monetized blogs about adsense, so I doubt it would be considered against the TOS.

    I don't see why it'd be a problem I've seen so many of them out there.

    You can do a site with adsense about adsense as long as you don't have the word "adsense" in your domain name. (from what I understand)
