I'm distressed by the introduction of advertsing everywhere on the internet. The age of banners and text links is long since over. Ads on Streaming Radio, Flash Ads, "Intelligent" ads like "Intellitext" and GoogleAds, and now even ADs in RSS Feeds. (I guess till now, I've seen ADs in only one RSS Feed - thats extremetech's RSS Feed hosted off ziffdavis server) I'm sick of using all those ad-blockers and try to combat ever increasing advertising

In any case, wasn't RSS meant to "Cut The Crap" - at least thats what I understood was the basis for the format - i.e. You could actually focus on "content"

As long as idiots keep responding to these ads, greedy vultures will continue to spoil everything with their crap.

It is sad that our culture has become so greedy. When is enough money, enough?
