The ads are derived more from your searches and from cookies on your computer from different sites you visit more than anything else.

As little as $5 as much as you want. For some odd reason this summer I kept getting ads from some Wyoming republican, I live in Ohio.

And all summer long I received ads from Kelly Ayote -- on nearly every single website I went to.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.

Tell me more...
