Unlikely to make money out of web ads, there is a lot of research done on the fact that people now blank them out. You would be better off starting a site that hosts ads and as an ad farm, selling ads to people who think having ads on their site will make them money.

What type of content? Overall, I think it's hard to make real money unless you are getting huge amounts of traffic.

Also, the context is important. Put yourself in the shoes of your typical user; would they want to click on the kinds of ads you're showing given the content of your site and what they came there for?

Yeah, it's tough I guess...what if the ads were for more specific resources, like stock photography, Flash components, fonts? I'm trying to think of what I would actually click on.

make your ads merge seamlessly into your site.. ie- a nav menu link that is actually an ad link...
But I don't recommend it - it's dirty and definatelly not long term strategy for returning visitors - but that is how the greasy people make big dollars..

Spawn 10 popups and disable the back button and I guarantee you will get clicks.
HAHA, just kidding, don't do that!

it is possible to make money from well placed advertising on a blog site.
a was on a guys site a few months back, maybe someone linked to it from here, but the guy worked in internet marketing and seo and had a really content-rich blog on the subject.
he claimed to make a living from the revenue he got from his site alone. granted he probably spends every hour of everyday on his site.failing that, come up with a money making website that hasnt been done before. it isnt easy - but it certainly isnt impossible!!
or theres scope for taking what someone else has done/is doing and do it better and steal their customers!
