i might take a ride in that time machine with you. our first per-click sponsor was called the dirtybird's nest, and at 2 cents per click - using only the approved banners - we did great. then there was assmeat. and remember adwealth? they were originally pink something, and they had a "rough men" site that did great for us. and back then, great meant either pay per raw click with honest counting or selling at 1:100 or better.

and remember topbucks before they were topbucks? they were also pay per click and did pretty well. i can't remember what they were called.

ah, the good old days...

hey, did you promote hpic back in the day? they used to send us travellers checks from europe every couple weeks, usually at least a few dollars over what they owed us and sometimes a lot more *LOL*
