This plugin is pretty simple. If you are selling several ads and want each to have the same amount of visibility while still displaying all the ads (like the top right images in my sidebar), this is what you want.
Just download the plugin, go to Option/Random Ads within your wp-admin and enter your ad code (be sure to separate each with <!–– End Ad ––>)

I guess one use scenario for this could be that you could simply use it to rearrange your ads. That might cause readers to pay more attention to ads, since the ad space might look little bit different each time, when they visit your site.
At this point, I don’t have anything advertisements to really benefit from this, but its nice thing to know that tools already exist, if it ever comes a problem.
Definitely a good point. Honestly since I made this plugin and started using it on my own site click-throughs on the ads have gone up, most likely due to stopping ‘banner blindness’ as you stated.
i will try it on my blog, i find here from google.
