More about AdSense and The Long Tail
My previous comments about AdSense and The Long Tail weren't unique. Back in November 2004, Robin Good points his readers to an October 2004 Morgan Stanley report called An Update from the Digital World (PDF) that discusses The Long Tail phenomenon for blogs and syndication of content.
