Last Chance To Buy Me a Beer

Perhaps the real reason you removed the plugin was because you were drinking so much beer you couldn't get any work done? :razz:

Hey John,

Why don't you just have it so it doesn't appear in your RSS feed?

I'm not going to click on your ads, but I might buy you a beer... tsk tsk

Get some Shiner Bock with that dough, John.

Thanks for the plug, hopefully we will get to drink a beer together in person soon!

Three months get over $600 of buy you a beer that's very impressive.

$600 worth of beer is good..u will miss them

how many people have bought you a beer so far?

Damn it! I e-mail you the code

Last try; change * for Buy me a beer! */a*

code didn't appear ok so let's try again;

Buy me a beer!

:razz:

Hey John,
I have never been one to complain about too many adverts but I am starting to think that your RSS feed might have too many at the moment to the point that I dont even look at them anymore. I felt that one or two link adverts at the end of each post was about ideal and i always seemed to take notice of them. But now that there is 6 I think its just too much for me too take in when skimming past. But I guess they aren't pay per click so the evil one still wins anyway!

good bye to buy me a beer :grin:

With all the money you make, you should be buying ME the beer.

Dear Mr. Chow;

This is Jose, a new fan of you from Spain, Europe. I'm fan of the beer too, so I'd like to tell you that you can enter the "buy me a beer" code where ever you want in your template without the inconvenience of the rss feeds.

1 Create a new paypal donation item
2 Edit single.php and index.php and copy/paste this at the end of the loop;

Buy me a beer!

3 change https://www.paypal.com/... in this example for your paypal donation address.
4 include a beer icon with css; background-image:url(images/iconbeer.gif)

Check it working here -> joseperdicion.com

Buy me a beer! if you found useful this piece of advice.

Jose

Is there a buy me a meal plugin? Or is that one easily editable?

It's last call at the John Chow bar

I don't see why you can't still have it only your blog. I use it on my blog simply buy editing the template and entering the code. I don't use a plugin to have it. Check it out here, www.aspkin.com, by the way, I love the way your website looked so, like other webmasters has to take advantage of it.

Good luck

Have you considered delving into code to make the plugin not show up on the feed? That way you can keep it on posts and keep one of your income streams. :)

John, why don't you just put a link somewhere else on your page not in your theme? Something to the effect of "If you enjoy the hard work I do, then buy me a beer!"

I never liked buy me a beer and neither did a lot of people. Glad it's gone.

John, did my ad get in sent about 15 mins ago thanks

All RSS Text Ads spots have been sold.

Maybe I'll open up my stingy pocket book and buy John a beer tomorrow.

You can very easily put a buy me a beer link in your single.php template file below the post. This would allow you to keep making beer money and it won't show up in your feed. You get the best of both worlds.

enjoy your 'buy me a beer' for last two days too! :lol:

Hey John,
I have a money making idea for you. How about a "Money Making Social Network" using Pligg? If you let me aggregate your posts on it, I will make it. Free advertising for John for sure... We can get everyone with a Money Making blog to participate. Just an idea for a bigger evil scheme. :evil: :evil: :evil:

John, I appreciate your thoughts for your advertisers. This is also an evil strategy of John to sell his last 2 ad spots.

Please dont drink too much beer and might turn John Chow to Chohn Jhow

Thats interesting www.chohnjhow.com

John, I have a make money online idea for you, and it will take you under an hour to do. Think of it as "An Hour In The Life of JohnChow.com"

1. Get Camtasia
2. Record a screen video of you setting up the button ads on the right blog column, your RSS ads, your TLA ads, post-level ads, etc.
3. Record setting up your RSS feed in Facebook, handling your email, etc (basic blog business-running type stuff)
4. Upload the 50-60 minute video to your Kunaki.com account and sell the dvd for $47 from a link on your blog.

I'll be your first customer. You'll easily make $50K for one hours work. You can even use it as a front-end for people to pay $4000 to fly to Vancouver for private consulting or your boot camp!

What I find more interesting is the advertising page that the bottom link brings you to. Interesting that you are no longer going to allow the ad flipping. What's the matter, getting out of hand and resulting in too much extra work with no pay? Why not charge for an ad-flip instead?

Good idea John. I never understood how you managed to drink all that beer anyway.

Check your email John! :cool:

Well the big question is John, how many beers have you been drinking while blogging? (For me, average is about 5-6 a day, well usually I am drinking some unfiltered Korean rice wine or Soju but if I am drinking MGDs...) :evil: :evil: :evil:

I never was a fan of the buy me a beer plugin, especially now that everyother blog on the planet has some variation, tea,coffee, root beer. I am a fan of keeping revenue streams very relevant to the site so I would be a big fan of say a bear blog with a buy me a bear plugin

Buy me a beer didn't seem to fit in very well with the new sleak JohnChow.com anyway.

Still thinking about one of those ad spots, if only I could come up with something clever to do with it.
