Attack of the Clutter Monsters

Wondering why you can’t seem to get anyone’s attention? “Anywhere the eye can see,” says the New York Times, it’s likely to see an ad.”

When I first posted this, I tested the link to the article, and was taken first to an ad for a Sony notebook. That’s not happening now — I guess you only get that annoyance the first time you go there. Subsequently, you go straight to the article, but there’s still a little ad (actually, rotating ads for various movies) in the upper right corner.

Nice unintentional irony there.
