I use AdBlocker as an extension for Google Chrome. It does a very good job on removing commercials, but doesn't remove the text advertisements in Gmail. Is there some way to also remove the text ads in Gmail?
Edit: Actually the problem was Web Clips and not ads. I installed Better Gmail and it tooled me about Settings -> Web Clips which I could turn off.

Off topic. This site is about webapps. Please ask your question on SuperUser.com
Al Everett : Gmail is a web app. Seems on-topic to me.Isaac : Chrome is not a webapp. The question is about using Chrome. To be honest I agree with you, but this question (http://webapps.stackexchange.com/questions/5379/how-can-i-do-keyword-search-in-chrome-closed) got closed because it was about how to use Chrome. Personally, I think questions about browsers should not be closed since the lines often get blurred between the app. and the browser. I can't make the suggestion to allow these questions on meta.webapps since I don't have any reputation. Reputation anyone?grm : This question is about using Gmail which definitively is a webapp.grm : Also, you happen to use webapps in a browser. As I wrote in Edit, the solution was actually inside the webapp (turning of Setting -> Web Clips).rchern : Rather than posting this as an answer, it is more appropriate as a comment.From Isaac -
There is a Greasemonkey userscript which removes the adverts (I've just tested it) but it causes some style errors with some links moving slightly.
As Greasemonkey is now built into Chrome you will be able to install it by simply hitting "Install" on the userscript page and it will install as a regular extension.

The Better GMail extension has an option to do this.
