    You guys see the new ads to come to blogging or any site i suppose?

    WidgetBucks is what it's called.

    I wrote a little quick article about it at my blog.

    That's quite true, however many don't have an advertiser network ready. I'm assuming that since WidgetBucks advertises prices on items, then they already have a quite large inventory.

    My blog does not load any slower, but the flash widget itself takes some time to load. They need to fix this.

    hmmm..that's annoying as heck...and the worst thing about it is that it breaks the validity of the code...I know most people don't care about valid code, but I do, so I would have to rewrite it like I do for a lot of plugins and widgets...

    but I'm interested to see how people do with it so please post results when you have them :)

    Just more crap to clog your blog up with. Adsense is bad enough.

    Here's a direct link: http://widgetbucks.com/

    They have a great list of advertisers on their homepage ... but who is behind it? I'd want to know that a) my money is safe and b) they mean business, long term.

    Well, I run them for a day and so far it only generated 1 click which resulted in a revenue of $0.00 I'll test them for a week more.

    I'd say the real test is if they pay out!

    If you looked your clicks have not been accounted for yet. Look at your clicks and it says revenue is to a certain date. Looks like you have to wait a bit to see your earnings
