Ad Generating Sites

ConfusionI recently spent some time on a search site looking for some specific software. I wasn't sure just how to describe it so I tried any number of terms and combinations of terms to get the answer I wanted. It is amazing the number of sites I found which seemed to exist only for the purpose of displaying ads! There are a large number of sites which appear to have content, only to turn out to be sites set up to display lists of links to other sites which, in turn lead to lists of other sites, which . . . well you get the idea. It makes finding real information frustrating.

Add to this sites which want to sell you something -- anything -- and appear to be sites which take your terms and try to show you stuff that you might buy -- and you get real frustration. It seems that actualy content on the web is scarce. Makes you think that there must be a better way.
