If the person writing this post were not a little dull, the set up for Google Adsense would have been very easy. Sadly, your humble author is a bit of a laggard and forgot that he had checked in to adsense during a brief foray into blogging about a year ago.
As such, when I tried to sign up for a new Adsense account, I was repeatedly told I already had an account (which I, as was previously mentioned, forgot about) So after blundering around like an obese blind man for about 15 minutes I found a help doc that suggested I check for my verification email. Since I've got a gmail address I went to my inbox, put Adsense into the search box and found the email in less than a second. Following that link had me signed up in just a few minutes more.
My account is currently under review, apparently I may have to wait up to a week to be approved. I expect that will be an easy process but I'll keep you all apprised of any new developments.
Edit: One thing I forgot to mention was my suprise that AdSense pays ONLY by check. Like actual paper drive-my-ass-to-the-bank-like-a-slope-forheaded-neanderthal-to-cash-the-thing check. I was pretty amazed by that. I wonder if there is some legal reason they don't want to use services like PayPal. I supposed it could be a business thing if Google plans to offer a competing service at some point.
