Being quite libertarian in my ideology these days (I'm sure it does have something to do with aging, Clif ;-), my inclination is toward a more free-wheeling approach as well. Modern email clients being what they are, it's not difficult for each individual to set up twit-filters, etc. to lower the noise-to-signal ratio to his/her personal preference.
I don't even consider recommending third party products to be an "ad" necessarily, unless the poster stands to benefit financially from recommending the product (i.e. it's their own product, or they are reselling it). In those cases, etiquette suggests that the poster should disclose that fact. Whether that disclosure is in the form of [AD][/AD] tags or some other disclaimer I leave to the group's decision.
