AdMob

Ok, so to add a banner to my mobile application I would have needed to create an AdSense mobile beta account. This would have been fine, but the beta is now closed and they are not accepting new applicants. The have redirected me to AdMob, which is now owned by Google anyway. It seems a bit redundant to me to have two services by Google that is essentially the same thing.

Approved

I got approval from AdSense within hours and after tinkering with it a little bit I figured out how to place ads on the site. It is a short jump to placing ads in my app as well. These ads require internet to use, but my app does not. This being I will probably try to release a paid version without ads and a free version with ads. I'm thinking it should go for about 2 USD.
