I love it! Fabulous idea.
I would love to discuss this further with everyone, but I dont think i have the ability to start a new post here. Anyone care to start the discussion?

I love the idea of adfree blogging. And the little logo is cute. But isn't it enough to just have no ads on the adfree blog page?
I would hope that if bloggers mention a product in return for money from the manufacturer, they would have the decency to state upfront in the post that it is a "paid advertisement" (along the lines of the disclaimers for those horrible half hour 'infomercials' on TV)

P.S. I do have the ability to start a new post but it seems that the discussion about this might just as well be attached to this post.
It's cute but there's part of me, the cynical part, that wonders at all the 'adfree' bloggers advertising the guy who came up with the 'adfreeblog' logo. Two clicks from the 'adfree' faq is a store owned by an adfree blogger.
