As we know, Google AdWords now offers an option to manually check which websites you want your website to advertize with AdWords. Advertizers are smart people, they will advertize only at those websites that make sense to them. Thus, my question is how that trend will affect a long term AdSense industry? Will there be less non-sense AdSense websites lefts on the web? If no one is willing to advertize with them, these websites will loose any significance to their owners. Isn't that true?
No, I don't think the other ones will go away at all, it's good for advertisers yes and it may increase their effectiveness and correspondingly decrease some crap web site's revenue a bit, but everyone will still make money in the end, Google will just find something else relevant to place on the sites.

I don't think it'll have a very big effect. My guess is that the advertisers who go around manually choosing which sites they advertise on are not big-time advertisers. Those guys don't have the time to surf the web looking for "appropriate" sites. After all, that's the whole point of Adsense -- it saves the advertiser work by displaying ads only on sites with the specified keywords.
I agree, advertisers won't give a f... where will they're ads appear.. they only focus on the measure of ads appeared..
