Not only that, they will also share the Google AdSense revenue (see details at the site).

I have added two minor features to my blog that I hope are good both for me and for my readers.
To show my appreciation to my readers I have added Top Commentators plugin, this will display links for top 5 users that leave comments on my blog.
I have added Snap tool. By rolling over any link on my blog, users gets a visual preview of the site without having to go there, thus eliminating wasted “trips” to linked sites.

I thought is time to give my blog a new look. First I changed the theme and then I started adding features. There is nothing new for the moment, only the same content under a different look. I really like the new design more than the old one, is more friendly, easy to use and navigation is more easy between blog pages. I’ve also increased sidebar width and now long titles are no more on 2/3 lines, added Stumble Upon link to every post to make bookmarking easier and I have made other minor changes that will make Alex Blogging easier to use.I am waiting your opinions, suggestions about this change. For the newest readers I have put a screen shot of the last theme/design that I have used for Alex Blogging.
