Ads Will Be Shot on Sight

After reading a post about putting ads on your site, I got to thinking about ads on mine. For the longest time, I didn't put any up for a few reasons. First and foremost is that I had ads. Second, and not by far, is that my readerships is so small that I really didn't think I'd gain any benefit from having ads. Well, I finally decided that I'd stick some on here, and the second part of my reasoning has held true. My readership really is so small that I don't really see anything from them. As for my hatred of ads, I think I've done an alright job there. Also, the same day that I put the ads on I linked to browser plugins to disable ads. Adblock for Firefox, and IE7Pro for IE. The ads themselves are fairly small and out of the way, I think. Honestly, though, I don't even see them. I have them on more as an experiment than anything else.
Really, though, I am always amazed at ads on websites when I surf somewhere with my ad filters turned off. I don't understand how anyone can posisbly stand to visit those places and see the ads. The other thing that I think is funny is that I often don't even know that a site uses many annoying ads until I turn off the filter. I went for the longest time thinking that Facebook didn't have banner ads. I'm hopeful for the day when everywhere will just limit themselves to text only ads. I really don't think I'd mind if that is all that was used.
