I love that the Penny Arcade guys are giving us the option of paying for a year of viewing their site ad-free.

I've already paid LiveJournal so that I never have to see ads on their site, and nobody has to see ads when they see my blog there.  That makes for a much improved experience over there.

But for Penny Arcade, since they personally approve of the ads they display there, and their taste is so similar to mine, I really don't mind their ads.  I thought their other readers that didn't like ads already used AdBlocker.  (But Penny Arcade's option would provide for better layout than AdBlocker provides, I suppose.)

I'm really glad they're offering their readers the chance to choose which way they experience the site.  I wonder what we'll all choose?

They're surprisingly close to their goal.
