Does anyone notice distractions on websites?

I try not to look at ads and shiny, glitzy things when I'm reading things.
I don't pay much attention to commercials on radio or TeeWee either.

I was looking for an old e-mail and was looking in the dashboard for options when I saw this, in recycling tips (in the grey strip).



I know Google tracks my browser habits, but what kind do you think they have for readers of the Daily Krotch and the DU?
