I have been using the internet since the days of Compuserve. Before that a 300 baud modem on bbses. The amount of information that is available is incredible compared to then. Yes the ads and the constant and sometimes intrusive attempts to get your money are annoying they are the price we pay. The trick is to not get caught up in the distractions.
