    When was the last time you clicked on an ad? What was the ad? Was it text or picture.

    The last ad I clicked on was about a year ago. It was a flash ad that had you punch a famous character. If you hit it three times it would bring you to the page. Now..for me.... I couldn't resist. Have no idea what the product was on the other side because I kept my popup blocker on.

    I click on adsense ads pretty often.

    Usually people spending money on adwords have something valuable to offer, a really good product or service. So I click a lot on adsense ads.

    I usually find what I'm looking for faster when clicking on adsense ads that on normal SE search.

    But that's just me.

    Yes I click the AdSense ads too; I just ignore banners because they are usually a distraction.

    When I got AdSense the first 5 months or so I was afraid to click on any adsense as I was regularly browsing my 20 sites with adsense and didn't want to get banned ... (paranoid)

    Now I click a few times maybe 2-3 times a month when I am curios. (not mine, hehe)

    first month I clicked my ads a lot, was dumb thought it'd make me rich haha :D
    once you're logged into adsense your ip is stored in there, so if you click your ads it won't count

    I only click on ads when they interest me. If they don't interest me then I will not click on any of them.

    I guess you may click some webmaster ads as you quickly look at a page and don't quite realise that they are ads first until you click them then you quickly realise.

    If this is the case then I guess us webmasters must be doing something right with the integration of our ads into our website pages.
