The first thing I'm looking for on a news-site when I can't actually read the article from all the BLINKENLIGHTS is the print button, can't find that, or all I get is a pop-up to actually really print the article? - Either zoom in enough to be zoom past the crap, or leave.
Don't get me wrong: I have an adblock in all my browsers: But the new, hot, web 2.0 stuff means there's some Facebook crap loading, there's ~7 buttons to share and ~5 buttons like the article through different social channels -- all of which I couldn't care less if I'm interested in the actual content.
