I have resisted the urge to add advertising to this blog since it’s been up for a few reasons.  Pretty much the key one is that I frankly don’t get enough traffic.  Who reads this blog?  My friends (occasionally), potential employers, anyone who googles my name.  And I have no desire to piss these people off with a lot of ads for no return.

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

Today I did join Amazon’s affiliate program though.  Why?  Because I have recently finished an awesome book, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, and I wanted to share this experience with my friends.  I thought of writing a review, or atleast a “I recommend this!”.

So does a recommendation comprise advertising?  Or is it just content?  I could just post a pic of the cover, but why not link it to Amazon?  It a badly kept secret that I prefer to do my book shopping on Amazon, and I love my Kindle.

I don’t think I’ll be getting rich off this any time soon, and I will not pollute my blog with a ton of advertising, but I don’t think linking to some of my favourite products is so bad.  So maybe I have sold out a little, I hope the two or three of you whom read will forgive me.

Coming soon: The kshuntley.com book club.

Oh please.

It’s a clever ad, and to think it’s degrading is ridiculous.
