  I feel vindicated. Only days ago I was arguing that this was an ad area! http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=523481 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=523481 As I said in that comment, this is a masterful rollout of ads. First, they're building up our interest over this area by putting interesting things there, and then they will start putting real adverts there.
