The Google mama didn’t raise no fools.

That’s what I used to say about my mama whenever I hit upon a good idea and someone recognized it as so.

By some estimate there are some 70+ million ‘active’ blogs. Active is defined as updated once a month.
Google adSense policy is to not pay until at least $100 is made at a blog/web site.
Another estimate is that 75% of blogs are abandoned after 3 months.
75% of 70 million give or take a few million = 50 millionish.
Yet another estimate….suppose these abandoned blogs generate only $10 each.
50 million times $10 = $500 million.
$80 each = $4 billion!!
An average of $50 = $2.5 billion.
To be sure… Google has somewhere around $1B give or take a whole LOT more money that it will never have to pay out to anyone, just cuz…cuz they, the blogger, did not stick with blogging long enough to make it pay off.
Google ain’t no dummy, that’s for sure.
