...had Google ads at the bottom of the page?

Sorry if this is a repeat, but I just noticed them and I didn't see anything about it when I searched...

It's the third thread about it today. Actually in the last couple of hours. Which is no slight on you, I just think it's funny because i didn't even notice the ads at all!

I did and wondered - but hadn't seen the previous threads.

No, they're very much new. Hopefully they help defray the costs of the bandwidth we chew through [Smile]

you know, if we gotta have ads, I'd rather have google ads than anything else (other than no ads.) I saw everyone shoudl start clicking on them to help support Hatrack.... everyone clicks once an hour, I'm sure that would help...

Ya know, that's a good idea. I'll make sure to click once each time I stop by the boards. [Big Grin]

Actually, I just had a lot of fun opening all kind of Hatrack threads and checking out which context-driven ads Google would display.

Much more reliable to find out what some threads are about than the titles, don't you think?

I like how the ads at the bottom of this page are for movie downloads.

Do you use the Google toolbar?
I don't, and I also don't see ads on the bottom of the page.
However, I do see ads on the right side of the page, but that's not even close to being new.

Nope. And I've definitely never seen ads on the right side of Hatrack.

[Confused]

The computer I'm on right now does not have the Google toolbar (though it has another pop-up blocker). I do see the ads, and I have never seen an ad on the right side of the page.

Weird.

We're planning on adding the AdSense ads to our site soon, they're... classier, I guess, than most of the other options for third-party ads. Nothing flashes at you, they're easy to ignore should you wish to, they load quickly, etc.

But I admit I must not scroll down far enough here, I didn't notice them at all until people started laughing about the "relevant" ads in topics, and then it still took awhile for me to find them.
