Comparing ads
So I’ve removed all the clutter and reduced the lag, the following is what I think of some of the online ad serves that I’ve tried and tested.
Adsense
Possibly the least fancy but quite relevant and surprisingly, the $$$ is comparable to other ad serves. Some ads are cost-per-click (CPC), some are cost-per-thousand-impression (CPM). My ads are mostly CPC because it’s not so huge/popular that advertisers choose to place an ad here for CPM. Cashout at US$100.
Advertlets
You get paid CPC and CPM, payout is in RM, cashout at RM$100. No minimum traffic requirements. One of the prettiest advertisements. Malaysian based company, server lags out terribly quite frequently causing my blog to load slowly.
BLOG2u.SG
One of my favorite and best paying, they match you with an advertiser and you get to choose whether or not you wish to write an advertorial on the vendor. Singapore-based, cashout is immediate via internet bank transfer! Remember to say keymistress referred you! 
Nuffnang
Verdict: Don’t waste your time.
WidgetBucks
Welcome to the MLM of online advertising! Ugly flash ads, CPC only. Good for massive tech blogs, doesn’t work for me.
At the end of the day, I wonder when I’ll ever hit the minimum cash payout. Probably after 3 years of blogging, maybe?
