I have ad blocker software. Today It's blocked about 150 ads, saving me 5 minutes or so at 56k. It adds up in a hurry, pun intended. I never clicked on the ads anyway, most people don't. I think the click rate is somewhere between 1 and 2 percent. It costs what, $30 or so per thousand impressions, so your paying 2 or 3 dollars for someone to come look at your website and a large percentage of those people will never buy. The math doesn't work for me, but apparently does for someone. Will it continue. Yep. Probably get worse. In a few years when Gates and McCaw finally get us surrounded with satellite and everyone can have affordable high speed access it won't just be animated gifs, we'll probably have full video clips to watch on every web page, of course some bright guy will have blocker software for it, and i'll be clicking to his page not the advertisers. lol.
