The Classic Arcade Game Donkey Kong
Last year I was experimenting around with different ways to be more successful with Google Adsense. I published a pretty cool page that I pretty much wrote entirely by hand. Today I was digging around in my server, and ran across it. I totally forgot all about the page, but thought it was pretty cool and decided to share the page with you.
Basically I found a flash version of the famous Donkey Kong video game. Second thing I did was find an image of an old school stand up Donkey Kong arcade console. Once I had the image, I used MSPAINT to break down the image into sections (making notes of the pixel measurements). From there I was able to replace the television screen with the flash file of Donkey Kong, thus making it a virtual and playable version of the Classic Donkey Kong Arcade game. Naturally, this was a way to make money online by using Google Adsense, perhaps some Amazon code on the top and bottom, etc….
After finding this page after creating it over a year ago, this actually inspires me to continue to be creative in my work. The page is over a year old, written by hand, and the image editing was done using the a program that is older than more than 50% of my readerbase! Folks, no Photoshop in this one! LOL
Anyway, enjoy… and maybe this might help trigger some ideas for you and your site.

It just goes to show you that you don’t need to reinvent the wheel to make money on the Internet. All you have to do is tweak the wheel to make it faster, cooler, or different in some way. Its the same as any other business, you need a uniqueness - a competitive advantage.

Thanks man…
I am going to be working on a series of what I would call, “Out of The Box Adsense Marketing”.
Here is another sample I am working on at the moment: The Apple Notebook Youtube Viewer.

Me too… I was an arcade and Nintendo Junkie… and in many ways, 20+ years later, I still am!

Yes, and using the most current browsers, you have to click the game to active it as well.
