Do you believe Godwin’s law of Nazi analogies applies to Yahoo Answers Politics?
Godwin’s law (also known as Godwin’s Rule of Nazi Analogies or Godwin’s law of Nazi Analogies)[1][2] is a humorous observation made by Mike Godwin in 1990 which has become an Internet adage. It states: "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1."[3][2]
Godwin’s law is often cited in online discussions as a deterrent against the use of arguments in the widespread reductio ad Hitlerum form. The rule does not make any statement about whether any particular reference or comparison to Adolf Hitler or the Nazis might be appropriate, but only asserts that the likelihood of such a reference or comparison arising increases as the discussion progresses. It is precisely because such a comparison or reference may sometimes be appropriate, Godwin has argued[4] that overuse of Nazi and Hitler comparisons should be avoided, because it robs the valid comparisons of their impact.
Although in one of its early forms Godwin’s law referred specifically to Usenet newsgroup discussions,[5] the law is now applied to any threaded online discussion: electronic mailing lists, message boards, chat rooms, and more recently blog comment threads, wiki talk pages, and social networking sites.

There are many corollaries to Godwin’s law, some considered more canonical (by being adopted by Godwin himself)[3] than others.[1] For example, there is a tradition in many newsgroups and other Internet discussion forums that once such a comparison is made, the thread is finished and whoever mentioned the Nazis has automatically "lost" whatever debate was in progress. This principle itself is frequently referred to as Godwin’s law.
You could add the fact that whenever there is an ultraliberal on the forum, the probability of a Nazi analogy is certain.
It really does rob true Nazi analogies of their merit

The Top 10 Free Classified Ad Sites to Advertise Your Home Business Products for Success
You can become successful with any business with the right resources. Selling products that people use in everyday life is a great way to go. You get residual income and the guarantee that they will be back. Not only because of the product. But, the fact of needing the product. Most that start a business have no clue where to start.
The first place to go when starting a business is free classifieds. If you write an effective ad, it will make you successful at your business. You do not have to pay tons of money to get viewers to click on your ad. A creative and flamboyant ad will get you the clicks and sales that you desire to gain an overwhelming amount of income. Working from home can be very frustrating and feel like you are on a one way street. You get confused, don’t where to go, and don’t know how to get started. You think you are doing it right, but find out that all that hard work and time was wasted. Making mistakes is good, because you learn from them. You can fix what is not working and look back to make it better and more productive.
If an ad is not working, go back and change the title. Look at the most popular ads and see how it is written. Make sure your ad has enough information about the product. Be careful. Try not to put too much information in the body of the ad. Article writing is a powerful way to get noticed and to get your business exposed to highly potential customers. Keywords are very important to viewers seeing your ad. Keywords are short little phrases that will get your ad noticed when a viewer is searching for a specific product or service. Example of keywords are; make money from home, work at home, diets, weight loss, nutrition.
Here are 10 great sites that will get you massive amounts of traffic without spending a penny.
Craig’s List.com
Kijiji.com
Myspace Classifieds
Oodle.com
Backpage.com
Inetgiant.com
Kingston.com
Classifiedsforfree.com
WordPress.com (blog sites)
Impads.com
Remember; write an effective and informative ad. Make sure it contains just enough info that will get the consumer to click to learn more about the product or to make a purchase. The more sites you place your ads on the better you will achieve traffic.

Popular Internet Marketing That is Free to Low Cost
Instead of spending big bucks to advertise in print publications and participate in other costly offline marketing venues, many businesses of all sizes are turning to free to low cost internet methods and strategies to invest their time, effort and branding for a greater outreach. Because for much less than the price of one print classified ad, a company can generate many more leads, targeted leads, with methods that are free to very low cost on the Internet, while responses from print campaigns, if any, are often not worth the return on investment (ROI) in comparison.
Some of the more popular free to low cost internet marketing methods out there today follow.
1) Free Press Release and Article Directories – Well written articles and press releases help draw targeted Internet traffic to websites. Simply insert a link in the body of the press release that invites readers to visit a website for a free report or other offer in the last paragraph, and add a similar call to action in the resource box or byline or an article. Then submit the press releases and articles to free online article directories and press release sites. Find them by entering keywords like, “free article directory,” in Google or other top search engine.
2) Hire Ghostwriters – Hiring someone to write content for your blog, website, article and press release submissions work is easy to day and inexpensive when you outsource your work to ghostwriters. Find experienced, qualified writers on freelance bid sites like Elance.com and on forums in your niche and in the Internet marketing arena, like at WarriorForum.com.
3) Establish a Presence at Free Social Networking, Bookmarking and Other Sites – There are many places online where you can register for a free account, set up a web presence there, often with the ability to upload digital media to share with others, post on a blog and more, while also networking with fellow members and / or visitors to the site, as they make comments on your content, share their info and more. Some of these sites are:
Squidoo
Hubpages
Blogger
Wordpress
MySpace
Twitter
Find many more by searching Onlywire.com for starters. And sign up there to bookmark all your content for sharing with multiple sites and to learn more.
A couple points to keep in mind with these sites are: follow the rules at each, don’t spam and don’t go over board there. For example, Hubpages only allows two links to your sites, at the time of this writing. Don’t add three, trying to fake them out with an affiliate link. And don’t spam comments all over on other Hubs just to get links. This type negative activity can get you banned, your account closed.
4) Free Classified Online Ads – Search for “free classified ads” in Google and many sites show up. Some of the more popular places to submit your ads are:
a) craigslist
b) backpage
c) kijiji
d) gumtree
e) loquo
f) classifieds.myspace
g) expo.live
h) adlandpro
i) usfreeads
j) oodle
For help writing your ads and even submitting them and keeping them up to date on each site, consider hiring help, outsourcing with a ghostwriter experienced with sales copy, and a virtual assistant who can open accounts at each place, submit your ads and follow up as they expire to renew them, revise them, etc.

how does adsense and blogging work to make money?
how does adsense and blogging work to make money? is it just a way for other people to make money off your work and you just get a little out of it?
It works like this…….
The ad publishers pay Google for their ads to be placed all over the net & some will end up on your blog – those that are relevant to your blog’s content.
So, if your site visitors click on the adsense ads on your blog (its likely they will as the ads are related to the content of your blog which it is assumed they are interested in) you will earn a certain amount of adsense revenue.
This revenue is a portion of the amount the advertiser pays Google – Google takes their cut & the rest is yours – this could be a 50/50 split but nobody knows for sure.
Also the amount you earn for each click could vary between $0.01 and more than $10.00 (unlikely to be this high though although it can happen)
