Echo JS 0.11.0

Nice article.

However, does anyone else get annoyed about the frigging ads that are popping up everywhere on SitePoint? I had to teach my ad blocker manually to block those annoyances because they were downright disruptive and pissed the hell out of me.

My experience on the site:
*loading...*
*loaded*
OMG HERE'S AN AD FOR RACKSPACE!
*WHAM! popup opens covering EVERYTHING else*
HERE'S A BOOK THAT NOBODY WANTS BUT WE REALLY NEED TO SELL MORE OF IT SO PLEASE GIVE US YOUR EMAIL SO WE CAN SPAM YOU MORE THAN WE ALREADY DO!
*close popup*
HERE'S A REALLY ANNOYING FLASH AD FOR COMCAST BUSINESS THAT DOESN'T MATCH THE COLOR SCHEME OF THE SITE IN ANY WAYS, BECAUSE YOU KNOW, WE WANT YOU TO NOTICE IT!
*scroll*
HERE'S AN AD FOR THE COMPANY THAT HAS CAUSED MORE SECURITY ISSUES THAN ANY OTHER SOFTWARE EVER BUILD ON THE WHOLE FRIGGING INTERNET - ADOBE! CLICK CLICK CLICK!
*scroll*
*banner appears from top*
HERE'S ONE MORE SPAM AD FROM NEWRELIC JUST IN CASE YOU MISSED ALL THE OTHER ADS WE PLACED ALL OVER THE FRIGGING SITE!
*close the whole page*

I wonder if they realize themselves the fact that those ads just makes them seem like unprofessional sellouts.

They seem to have pretty good articles from time to time, but that kind of behavior just makes me want to not go there anymore..

Am I alone with this?

You are not alone. Sitepoint has lost their way.
