    Since all of us here put Adsense on our pages don't you think we've become immune and almost NEVER click on ads anywhere anymore? Especially google ads?

    yes, it's called ad blindness. You have to remember that the vast majority of internet users are NOT web designers or webmasters. The vast majority don't know the difference between the sponsored listings in google and the regular listings.

    This is further boosted by some people making the ads blend in extrememly well, so well that people do not whether its ads or content from the site.

    I maybe click on ads once per month.

    But I'm fascinated with the ads that appear on my sites. I usually open a new tab and write the URL in there by myself to check their sites out without having to click on my own ads. You get too see all types of things and arbitrage models where you wouldn't even expect it.
