Anybody use Microsoft adCenter? I have used it here and there only because I use other sites for my PPC marketing, but I got something in the mail today!

Microsoft adCenter is going strong on there PPC advertising this year. Today I received a Search Marketing Guide from Microsoft. The book is about 30 pages and tells you exactly how to use PPC to create an income online! The guide is very well laid out and I even found a few things that helped me.
