Re: Some things to consider

Believe it or not there are still some pay per impression ads. OTOH the point of bahavioral advertising is to get something in front of you that is interesting to you so you'll click through. Honestly, as a content producer and a user I see both sides of the coin. I HATE ads that disrupt the layout of the page etc., but I also know that ads pay the bills. I also don't mind ads if they're interesting and are for stuff I care about. On one of the sites I run, Google does a very good job at this...cell phone ads on a cell phone related site. bingo. Facebook does a rather horrid job of matching ads to what I am generally looking for, and thus I'd rather ignore them.

Ignoring ads on ebsites comes from those ads being an annoyance, right? What if they actually made sense and helped you find information instead of being blaring marketing crap? Seems like that's what Google is trying to do.
