I had google.com blocked for a couple of years and recently removed the block. Now I'm thinking of putting it back. Anybody else have opinions on this?

Why would you want to block Google?

Because I'm getting stuff like Picasa ads that I doubt will get many clicks.

Blocking google. There's a novel approach...

Oh, you meant adding google.com to the Competitive Ad Filter! I thought you meant blocking Google with robots.txt. :)
