If those competing internet ad companies are the ones that take over the entire page and redirect me to other pages.. Good riddance.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out, scummy ad companies.

Project wonderful ads are a competitor to Google ads, and are, imo, vastly superior to some sorta of ads which I believe (?) are Google ads.

I think the problem Project Wonderful has is that they suffer from poor quality ads (no big company uses them) and poor quality publishers (no big numbers see them)

In my mind they're the "I can't afford Adsense" ad company, their website interface feeds into that too.

Really? To me they read as ads that are more concerned with keeping the interests of the users of the website in mind.

Also, the pricing system seems quite nice, a continuous second-price auction.

It all seems very "fair".
