Dear AOIRists,
<snip> I was so surprised to know that I was unconsciously incorporated into the affiliate marketing system. In other words, I just found myself making audience commodity for the sale of advertisers. Or maybe I am becoming an opinion reader in blogsphere... Anyways, it made me concern about the advertising structure of blogsphere.
So, if someone knows any useful resources/references about "affiliate marketing + blog," could you let me know?
