They were mostly there for the articles, where they 1) brought in a bit of beer money, and 2) didn't really seem to detract from anything (I can see the point about the home page ones). Anyway, I removed them.
My thought is usually this - if a person is interested enough in the type of money that ads bring that he clutters up his personal website, then this person must be pretty broke. And pretty broke people in the IT industry are usually not very smart people, because it's easy to make money in IT.
That's just my thought process, no personal offence intended.
