What are your plans for the growing ad blocking trend? More and more surfers are installing popup blockers (heck I hate those popups too) and activating ad blocking options in Norton’s and other software.

The Ad Block Project

Adblock - Firefox Extension

Mozilla - Blocking Advertisement

Popups Die

GreaseMonkey

We also have DMOZ’s list of advertisement content filtering resources to see how the resource pile is growing:

Don’t forget to throw in all the cookie filters, blockers, wipers and one click deletion too.

Everyone loves the free resources and information the net provides, but so many want that both free AND ad-free.
