FireFox adbar - It's a Joke Dammit!
I've been doing some research on the available FireFox extensions for a very small side project that may or may not appear. During my travels I spent some time investigating the quite excellent Adblock. I bet you can all guess what it does.

What was slightly more amusing was the Adbar extension, this adds text ads that no one gets paid for, to FireFox; it is very similar to the unregistered Opera browser. While the idea behind the extension is worth a smile the Adbar user comments page helps to prove that some people don't pay any attention to what they are reading and will swallow anything. Always a good thing to know if you plan on starting your own business ;)
