flashblock is another good toy. gives you the choice of looking at
flash instead of having a page that consists of 20 flash ads and a
flash player bogging things down.
i generally tune out static ads so well that i'm surprised when they
catch the attention of someone looking at the same page; i use RSS a lot
too, which avoids ads for the majority of blogs unless or until i load
specific articles; it also avoids that interminable loading of the last
6 months of images that some photo blogs (not Frank's) do by default
active ads i handle with ClickToFlash in Safari, a very simple and
effective tool that makes viewing Flash an elective process and also
facilitates access to H.264 rather than Flash versions of YouTube content

sometimes i turn off JavaScript temporarily too, because with 60 tabs
open in my browser, i don't always want to have to hunt for the page
that is soaking up CPU cycles (and draining my battery)
