Thank you for your feedback! I'm one of those people that posts links to updates on my blog. Advertising, in and of itself, is not a bad thing in my opinion. If you cured cancer but forgot to tell anybody nobody would stand to benefit. But yeah, some advertisers really go too far to grab your attention. As for Daring Fireball, it's really great site and I learn a tremendous amount by visiting it, even if John Gruber's just linking to something. The traffic his site gets goes to help those to whom he links and the readers get introduced to new apps and blogs. It's no different than HN in some regards, only more curated. In any case, thanks again!
