For what it's worth, in the last couple of months I've had a noticeable uptick in the number of "thank you for your Web site" e-mails from users. Now that the Web is flooded with junk sites where skimpy, shallow content is used as filler, any site that's remotely useful (and that appears to be more than an advertising vehicle) stands out from the crowd. That's good for traffic and overall revenues, though I'm not sure that publishers' AdSense revenues won't suffer if enough users begin to associate AdSense ads with worthless junk.
