Google Ads for RSS Feeds Goes Beta

Posted by Zonk on from the my-suggestion-for-next-feature-root-beer-floats dept.

The program is currently in Beta but will allow webmasters who offer RSS feeds of their content to include ads in the feeds (which often appear on other websites or through aggregators); someone clicks on the ad, the owner of the feed makes a little scratch."

    Try not to worry about comments like that. If slashdot posted a story titled "Google employee crosses the street" (on the front page, of course, it's got "Google" in the title), there would still be people who would see it as the last straw and say "So much for 'Do no evil.'" It's hard to predict what about crossing the street they would consider "evil," but someone would seriously be offended, somehow.

    Maybe something like, "It was probably because there was a black guy on the side of the street they were on. Google are racist bastards!"
