Terry notes that Infoworld is running ads in their RSS feeds:
I'm Not Doing the Ad Thing
Screw InfoWorld. I just unsubscribed from their RSS feeds.[ads removed–Steve]
Infoworld has every right to try and make a buck. I have every right not to read it. I'm not renewing my “free” print subscription either…[b.cognosco]
I removed mine before the ads started; the signal-to-noise ratio was to low.
Ric Ford and MacInTouch have been doing it for maybe the last three months in their RSS feed. Ric's ads are discreet, short and at the end of the feed. I subscribe to his feed to show support, but I don't read it. Since he doesn't put the full article on the feed, I have to go to his site anyway, so what's the point?
