It's called ADD in some circles. If I'm searching for something and a targeted ad comes up I click. I don't click inside Gmail. I rarely click on banner ads because they're never targeted enough. I'm least likely to click on an ad while I'm talking to someone (on IM or anywhere.) The thesis for this investment is mostly fantasy. That's why it took so long at such a small valuation.
