Well, how do you fare compared to the Zeitgeist? Chat up your fellow wooters and let us know how lame this poll was or what obvious choices we missed. For example: Was this poll a) STUPID, b) DUMB, c) POINTLESS or d) ALL OF THE ABOVE?

I haven't seen ads in a long time due to the simple ad blocker.

Every now and then, I'll open a page on my tablet and see a couple ads then but that's about it.

TechWoot asking geeks if they click the ads they don't even see. This is the sight I learned of AdBlock on in the first place.

This is a false question. Just because someone doesn't "click" on an ad, it doesn't mean that they haven't seen it and processed it either consciously or subconsciously. No one clicks on magazine ads, newspaper ads, billboards, or TV ads, but no one argues the efficacy of those types of advertising. Advertising is about name recognition, not clicking. This obsession with clicking on things is causing ads on the internet to be priced lower than their true value, and is making it difficult for internet companies that rely on ad revenue to make ends meet.
