A calculator game in GOOGLE ADS :O
« on: May 11, 2010, 12:20:35 pm »
Wow, just now on ticalc.org

Calculator RPG
Looking for a fun TI-84 game? Play the Maply RPG!

And it's actually a calc game :O

That's a first, for me.

The game isn't a masterpiece, though x.x

Well personally the game isn't that great, if we compare it to some other games being made these days, but it's still a bit above ticalc.org 8x BASIC archives quality average. Still, I was surprised to find it on Google ads o.o

I'm especially surprised since it the download doesn't link to a ticalc.org download, so he can't even inflate his stats.
This is quite interesting, though. How much does it cost to advertise on Google?

Maybe he paid in a pack to advertise his blog entries?
It would be cool he linked somehow to the community.

If it's cheap then maybe sites like Omni, UTI and Cemetech could advertise on Google :P that could attract some more members lol

THat said, though, barely anyone ever click Google ads. When I asked ticalc.org staff how much revenue they got from Google ads since they added them on their site 3 years ago, they said it was just barely enough to pay themselves a few beers when they met up in Seattle, Washington, not so long ago. X.x

Funny. ;D
But there are some people that live just of receiving money of Google in advertisement. They make a site, usually blogs, about cellphone reviews and stuff like that.

True. They need about 100 millions of hits per day, though, to get enough ad revenues.

Wow. How dead is CalcG.org, anyway? I haven't noticed any updates in a while and the recent files list is completely empty.
