the goooogle thing is pretty lame but who cares, it's a website not a way of life
- designerror0
It does cheapen it a bit, I agree.
I know for a fact that google ads generate very very little $$$ even with lots of hits day, so I don't really understand why it's there in the first place.
I have 5000+ hits a day on coolosxapps.net and I had google ads running for a week or so to see what it could bring in.
$3.74 for a week!! fuck that, aint worth it..

I know people that make 2k a month with google ads
but their target audience is way less educated in teh internet than the regular NT user.. I'd assume

can't they blend the ads in to at least look like NT?

I think next we should all receive an ID number from Google, and to avoid confusion, we can tattoo it on our arms, so everybody is happy.
FUCK CORPORATIONS, whoever they are or however they appear...

this is an afront to every right thinking citizen the world over. When will this creeping capitalisation of our virtual real estate cease?
I say revolt! take back your right to a non commercial existence, to talk without consumption, to live free of the dollar shackles!!
I'm starting this movement and I'll raise the whole damn corrupt mess to the ground!!
Here I go fuckers, watch THIS!!!
*logs off NT.

google doesn't allow you to modify font faces, gooogle ads have to be recognisable as google ads

Google ads are a blessing compared to those hideous banner everyone was putting on their websites before them.

(Nov 21 05, 04:30)What - with irrational indents and stray underlines?
- spongebob0
yeah the different font google uses is irking me a bit.
it would be far more tasteful to maintain the ad as the same font as the PBS...
heck, I'd be more inclined to click it (even if accidentally).
Have seen too many google ads around and instinctively avoid it.

ha ha.
yeah you can't change the bad design .... google needs them recognisable otherwise some dodgy website wonwers will merge them with content in order to generate misled click throughs (click fraud)

From QBN Advertising & Sponsorship declaration: "Only select advertisers that are relevant and add value to the Newstoday experience will be considered. "
Well are google adds relevant, maybe. Are they add value, I don't think so. Will see if those adds will pay off...

testing, 1..2..3

I do wonder why QBN who has custom ads from the likes of Nike needs a cheap google option.
