On advertising

This is going to be a simple and short post. In my circles in news and twitter, there's a lot of discussion about ad blocking (relating, it seems, to iOS9′s new content blocking features). I've been mulling the purpose of my blog and online advertising over the past few months, and I've come to the conclusion that the pittance that Google returns me for the privilege of running ads on my site isn't worth it. Therefore, I'm going to disable all the ads on the site, which should improve load times and reduce general annoyance for the 1% of you that don't block them anyway!

Cheers!
