They still provide SERPs that are very relevant to your searches.

As internet literacy is spreading fast, people are not clicking on AdSense blocks as they used to few years back. I think this resulted from low quality control from Google's advertising team - who let SEMs market Adwords which would take clickers to a site remotely related to it. Also people being more web savvy, they know how to find a targeted website er than ever. So they don't have to click an over optimized ad-block. #2, Google's war with webmasters (which is indirectly with SEO firms really) is not going to get more Google fans. Many webmasters are disregarding Google and its importance - specially after live came into the picture though it still has thousands of miles to go. It would also be interesting when and if Microsoft and Yahoo deal comes off. Lots of exciting days ahead and I reckon 2008 will see lots of big cyber WARs and will define the web for at least next 10 years. Hi Julie
