Fake Mexican Beer Takes Over Philly.com

Yes, once again Philly.com has been overrun by advertisements, this time for Miller Chill, some sort of light Corona-like beer. (Happy Cinco de Mayo!) The front page pretty much has all the hallmarks of annoying Internet ads (sans pop-ups): Flash ads that take over your screen, that change in size, that are incredibly distracting, etc. Although I didn’t see it on my page, I’d like to thank The Illadelph for the photo of the revised dot in Philly DOT com above.

In case you’re wondering, things like this are why Adblock Plus was invented.
