   It’s sounding quite amazing. I’ve tested the Import/Export in the nightly build and it works quite well, so it’ll be easier to switch hosts. The spellchecker is also going to be nice as well. Can’t wait for it to come out.

   Hello,

   I am making a small amount of money on Adsense but I am worried that I may get disqualified as although over all my sites I have a 1.56% click through ratio, on one of them I have a 6.98% Clickthrough ratio. I really don’t want to get disqualified from Adsense and as far as I am aware, none of my friends are artificially clicking my ads up.

   I haven’t tried that. It seems a bit complicated for me to do that. I don’t know how to create databases either. My technical-knowhow is very limited.

   If only there were a WP plugin where I could do that…….

   What I’d really like is this:
   http://trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2530

   The ability to control access to certain posts and pages based on whether I consider the reader family, friend or the public.
