internet - How to make money on weblogs

The question has come up more than once after this weblog went live almost a week ago. First, an amazing lots has been written about the issue already. Read for example Jeff Jarvis in his latest assesment of they payment issue and weblogs. Jarvis is one of the more proliferic writers on the internet, an enthusiastic promotor of weblogs and journalism. I disagree with many of his political views, on the war in Iraq and his his positive view op his supreme commander George W. Bush. But I still have to read him at least once a day. Different viewpoints make the blogosphere more interesting than the traditional media.
Making money you do first by not losing it: in my right column under the Google Ads at least one link will bring you to a free or almost free blogging service, that allows you to start a blog yourself within 30 minutes. The link to the Google ads service Adsense brings you to the same service I'm using. Do not expect miracles: I earned in four days just a cup of coffee in Starbucks, but then making money is not the main reason to do this weblog. Other services are beginning to emerge and seem more succesful than Google, but the future will learn this.
Enough open questions, enough to get depressed about: but change is taking place and you better be part of it.
