Second Post

Maybe this is more of a vent than a post, but has anyone noticed a rise in obnoxious ads online in the past couple of months? Everything from the SweepsNation and National Jean Company ads that move the webpages up and down to try to trick people into clicking on them, to DirecTV ads that won't let you see the site you're trying to visit. I've had to refresh some sites several dozen times to get rid of the DirecTV banner so that I can finally see the site I was visiting. These are just a few of the new-wave of obnoxious advertisements. Seriously, I wonder if these companys actually think these irritating ads help there business?! Quite the contrary, I think it makes their company appear trashy. If you can't win customers over with good products and service, try instead to trick them and/or annoy them into clicking your ad and doing business with you. Uh, not! Who comes up with this stuff?
