Google Search Box Reduce CTR

google adsense search box

I’ve been toying around with google adsense »”>Google Adsense Search on my other blogs and concluded that by using Google Search, a blog’s Google Adsense CTR could be greatly reduced by 1%, I’ve done some experiment for the past few months between February and April, and the blog that I experimented on has a drop of in CTR for that month which translate into a drop of earning in term of dollars, for your information, traffic to my blog increases every month.

The CTR went back normal again when I remove the Google Search Box, my best guess would be the possiblity a visitor exit my blog by searching something with the Google Search Box, where else if there is no Google Search Box, the visitors are much more likely to exit my blog my clicking on one of the external links. I’ll re-introduce the Google Search Box again in my other blog and will see how it performance again this coming month, hopefully my theory is right.

Disney Plagarise The Lion King Storyline

the_lion_king_simba_kimba02.jpg

This story has been circulating the net for years now, but I was thinking of sharing it with you guys. Remember the Lion King? The animated cartoon from Disney? Kimba the White Lion by Osamu Tezuka was released in the 70’s, where else The Lion King from Disney was release in the 90’s, considering the fact that both are 20 years apart, what are the odds that both of the storyline are somewhat identical, not similar but identical in almost every aspect.

Even the names “Simba” and “Kimba” comes so near, Disney deny that they steal the storyline from the Japanese artist, but that doesn’t matter because animated buffs believe that Disney ripped off Kimba to create The Lion King. Here are the scene by scene comparison, what say you? Coincidence?
