Digg has gone overboard with advertising

From my experience, Digg has chosen a very intrusive advertising method. Here is a screen shot of my Digg home page and the ad that popped up. Notice the very subtle close button, for all intents and purposes, hidden in the top right.

Yes, I noticed Digg has been getting more and more aggressive with advertising. If you’re a site that relies on ad revenue, you really need to find a balance. I was visiting a site yesterday that I think has found a pretty good balance. It’s called toptenz.net (getting pretty famous actually), and I think they do a good job of having ads that don’t annoy their visitors.
