Right now, some bloggers and webmasters are integrating Adsense for search boxes on their websites so that their users can allow to search for keywords, articles or posts and at the same time earning a chance to get click revenue.

Just received an email from Google with a subject We are retiring AdSense Referrals

I have just added my site Privacy Policy page to stay loyal to Google. This is copied from Marhgil’s Privacy Policy and it is cool and ok for him to be copied. There is this Privacy Policy generator but when I am about to make one, wow, I can’t understand some of their policy questions.
Quoted from Marhgil’s: How about you, do you already have your own Privacy Policy? You can just copy mine if you want, just edit the pertinent information to make it suit your site. Or you can use this Privacy Policy generator for a more formal one.
