In a post on user search behaviors, Jeff Atwood links to this report on how quick users are to judge websites. Ironically, upon viewing that report, a full minute passed before I noticed the left column did not consist of Google ads but rather of intra-site links, and in fact, there are no ads on the page at all. I guess the lesson is that, while some sites deliberately blur the visual distinctions between their ads and content, other sites—even those without ads—should be careful not to do the same accidentally.
