In a way I agree with you x1. I got the same feeling, but on the other hand it is a very easy way to support ruby too. The message that should be clear to all the ruby community is: click on that freaking ads!!! I started clicking everyday since yesterday, everytime I visit the site. Guys, let's click the ads on ruby-lang.org and we will give thousands to the cause of Ruby. Just my 2 cents.
