Simpy Chichimichi

It has been nearly a year since Simpy started giving away 100% of the revenue made from some of the ads shown on its pages. If you missed the announcement, you should read Announcement: Simpy is Profitable. While the numbers are not as high as those in Web 2.0 Disruption, a solid number of Simpy users entered their Google AdSense IDs. The reason I decided to share and give this away to people is because I wanted to recognize the value that they and their bookmarks bring to Simpy. However, what if people who once entered their AdSense IDs leave and stop using Simpy? I feel it makes sense for Simpy to continue sharing revenue with people, as long as they actively keep sharing their bookmarks. With that in mind, I did a bit of looking and found that at the moment a little less than a quarter of users who entered their AdSense IDs are still actively using Simpy. Starting from the next Simpy release, the revenue will be shared only with those people who are still actively using Simpy. I think that's fair. I've had this change in mind for a while now, but just got around to making the appropriate modifications and posting this announcement now. It's called tying the lose ends as this year comes to its end.
