I am sure this ad got quite some clicks due to the sheer surprise value. I am sure regular readers would have clicked through to find who John Chow is. I might have been prompted to click too (against Adsense terms!), but <a href=\"http:\/\/www.johnchow.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\">John Chow<\/a> is well known in the blogosphere and I regularly read his nice articles. Thanks John&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>It seems John Chow was inspired by <strong>similar advertisements displaying on his blog<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Update:<\/strong> John Chow loves Darren Rowse too.
