Do the advertisements on MRNussbaum.com become annoying? I think they are; but unfortunately the advertisements are what monetizes educational sites like this one and many others. In the absence of grants, government funding, or corporate sponsorships, displaying the advertisements keeps the site running by ensuring a cash flow. The money generated by the advertisements pays for server costs, development costs, technology costs, and for the countless hours spent working on the site. Although you see many corporate ads appear on the pages of this site, most of those companies DO NOT directly advertise with me; rather their ads are delivered to my site by third-party advertising firms who keep a generous portion of payment as part of their own fees.

In the summer of 2008, MrNussbaum.com will begin offering a package to teachers and schools that includes membership to the premium site as well as to a new ad-free MrNussbaum.com. It will be identical to the current MrNussbaum.com, just without the advertisements. I have not yet determined the cost of an annual membership, but I believe it will be in the area of about $60.00-$80.00 per year per classroom. For this price, subscribers can use the Premium version of MrNussbaum.com, the ad-free version of MRNussbaum.com, and download the MrNussbaum CD-ROM. Due to server constraints, it is possible that membership to the ad-free version of MrNussbaum.com will be limited. Check this page if you are interested in updates.
