What is the easiest way to add rotating ads to a typepad blog???
Clarification added February 3, 2008:
What I mean is I am looking for a way to add customizable ads on to a typepad blog. In other words I have a handul of companies and I want to add a rotating "widget" that will rotate between thumbnail images that connect to links for these companies webpages. I have tried AdRotator from WidgetBox but can not seem to get it to configure properly. Does anyone know of a widget that will allow me to do this...or how to get AdRotator to work?

Google Ads
Try Commission Junction, but on the other hand that only lets you use the companies they have. They have a lot though, so it might be just what you need, setting up smartzones to rotate ads.
If you want to manage the advertisers by yourself (unlike Google Ads) you might want to try OpenAds. It allows you to ad banners in the dimensions you want, banner links to the company (or whatever URL you provide), nice statistics, good performance. I don't know of a widget for handling OpenAds, but if you can ad HTML code to your site you'll be fine.
