Google Ads

[Keefe]

What does everyone think of the Google ads?

From the clickthrough rates, it seems like many people are finding them useful.

Tell me what you think.

I think I might have clicked on one.. I almost never read them.. did now because you brought it up.. I just filter it out with my brain as another ad..

i liked the alienware ads but now they seem to be replaced by a marketbanker ad.

I dont much trust paid advertisements

I trust reviews and ratings better......

i always accidentally clicked on the alienware ads...

[Keefe]

Its good to accidentally click on the ads every now and then. It keeps us going...

google ads are good

what im worried about is google text ads in gmail thats gonna be relevant to the email contents

i think the privacy concerns over gmail are overhyped. I mean, basically, a spam filter is going to be doing the same thing that the ad-server does. If you don't have a problem w/ spamfilters, then why content based ads? I mean, i do see the argument, but i think it is overhyped. otoh, who still needs ANOTHER email account?

[Keefe]

I'm seriously tired of hearing people complain about privacy concerns with Gmail. If people are worried about privacy, then don't f**king sign up for a Gmail account. It is as easy as that.
