Among the sites I visit daily, “pantip.com”:http://www.pantip.com is by far the slowest to load. This is not because of slow server, but the ads scattered all over the page. The server is pretty fast.

If I’m at home connecting via modem, I can basically forget opening up another page concurrently. As I said, the server speed is quite ok, and that doesn’t help the case because it is just serving me advertisement, and doing it fast, sucking all the tiny bandwidth.

I’m always surfing with “Load images from the originating websites only” option in “Firefox”:http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ turned on. But it doesn’t help much with pantip. Adding %{color:red;}ads.pantip.com% to the block list^1^ , however, helps a lot. 😀 It also means the page does not try to reload all the time.

I tried adding %{color:red;}www.pantip.com% to the block list, which speeds up the page load even more. It works pretty well on หว้ากอ, but fail miserably on โต๊ะกล้อง, which is a giver. 😛
