I’m wondering how a multi-user hosting site recognises when a site has been abandoned. I have a number of different sites, all in various degrees of abandonment, this one more so than most others. I just read James’s post on MU and making money (via OLDaily which I now read in monthly bursts rather than daily), and revisited my own abandonned edublog to see how it now looks. The content based advertising is pretty amusing and would be enough to force me to become a Supporter if my blog was actually a well-maintained site with a readership, instead of an exercise in bypassing the user-unfriendly IT systems of a former tertiary sector employer in relative anonymity. Or maybe I would keep the advertising just for the laughs in terms of how an automated system decides what ads are relevant to my content!
