what happens if you find that ads generate 2x the amount that Donations do?

Absolute Ads Corrupt Absolutely and all that.

But this is a meta theme for the entire tech world. How do valuable sites keep going?

I don't know answer to this question. All I can say is, that it shouldn't be the way with which people are moving away from any other annoying ad plastered site. It's about ad blindness and annoyance. I can tell you this from my experience, Adsense on tech site is going to earn less revenue from now on for plenty of reasons.

I think that a valuable thing has been said, no matter if this is for revenue or for curiosity... one month is not a long enough sample time.  Any data taken based on that will be suspect at best.  For example, look at the graph that mouser put up.  During February there is a dip based on the anti-SOPA protest.  Taken with that month by itself, your data would be corrupted by that one day.  Similarly, during a month, an article or a thread or a piece of software can be slashdotted, lifehacked, etc, polluting the sample.  Just my  :two:
