The Blog

The Blog at Johnhouston's, also known as Below the Fold...
This is Version 2.0 and a work in progress.

Here you'll find, in plain-spoken language; opinions (mine), flat-out facts and solutions as I see them.  All in an easy to read format.

A Spade is a Spade here and no sugar is allowed nor used.

Look Ma! No Google Ads!

... And you Knew there was something different here. Something missing. Something just not right.

Yep, it's the absence of the ever present Google Ads, Yahoo ads and MSN ads... Advertisements in general! Now you see just how much web site real estate those advertisements take up on your screen.

You can now read an opinion, story or whatever and not have something blinking within your peripheral vision. What a Novel Idea!

No, I'm not against the advertisements. In fact if someone actually wanted to purchase an advertisement here, I'd more than likely sell it to them. However, I doubt seriously that will ever happen. I don't have the million hits per day folks are wanting and I'm damned picky as to whom I'd even consider sharing MY real estate with.

I also find it somewhat bothersome to think that Company A would Willingly advertise Company B on their web site. I just don't understand the rationale there and it happens on just about every web site that uses Google, Yahoo or MSN advertising as "content". Content? Tells me that that site doesn't HAVE any content.

In the end I'll advertise my own products... Now go buy something from my store!
