It's the best. Whenever I use a computer where it isn't installed, I get a real surprise when I see an ad. I've completely forgotten that ads exist on the internet.
Of course, we all think we're "ignoring" the ads and never clicking on them, but seeing all that shitty marketing all the time is like mind poison. Especially the porn or "meet girls in your city" ads. That shit is sinking into your subconscious, it's awful.

Blocking ads is great, and Adblock Plus is particularly useful on sites that try to stop you from saving images (hi, flickr) by putting ghost gifs in front of them – you block that gif, and the image is yours to click on :)
