Yashi Is Famous

by Shawn @ 12:01 am · filed under Tech Stuff, Animals

Not to be outdone by his brother Wiggly, Yashi decided he wanted International fame... Today Yashi is in the New York Times business section (online and print edition). :)

I look kind of funny, but it's because I was trying to keep from laughing while I'm pretending to actually do something on the computer. :)

    Hey, is the $10000 that is attributed to the forum actually right, or does it include AdSense income from non-forum pages too?

    Congrats on the NY Times Article!

    It seems to have sparked quite a lot of interest in the blogosphere, especially the 78.5% payout figure for Google Adsense which has long been speculated about.

    hey guy, found your website after reading the ny times article today. what kind of monitor are you using in the pic? looks too wide for an apple 23″ and too short for the 30″ … but looks perfect for multiple documents w/o pushing a couple 23″ monitors together.

    I saw that monitor at the Apple store the other day. It’s really cool! Did you get a nice traffic boost from the NYT publicity? Did you see an Adsense boost as well? Just wondering…
