Advertising carries no intrinsic value. The ratio of advertising to content is growing. We all suffer.

Web sites make advertising easy. And an easy sell: at some margin, your site's ad space is just as valuable as Yahoo's. They get $500 per million hits, so do you, only it takes you weeks to accumulate your million hits.

Inevitably, we will have advertising everywhere. We will choke under it.
