Google Unveils Flash Ads
Gailin writes "Google has announced and given some examples of their new Flash based ads. They seem to vary from average size to full screen-width Flash advertisements, with some interactive abilities. 'Gadget ads can incorporate real-time data feeds, images, video and much more in a single creative unit and can be developed using Flash, HTML or a combination of both. Designed to act more like content than a typical ad, they run on the Google(TM) content network, competing alongside text, image and video ads for placement. They support both cost-per-click and cost-per-impression pricing models, and offer a variety of contextual, site, geographic and demographic targeting options to ensure the ads reach relevant users with precision and scale.'"
Does this mean I get to keep "Punching the Monkey?" I just can't find enough ways to win free ringtones.
now all i need is a version of flash that works consistantly on 64 bit hardware.
then again, maybe not
You misinterpreted - it is actually:
Don't! Be Evil.

How often did I wake up at night, my pillow soaked in bitter tears, cursing google for not offering flash ads. Finally, we shall be rid of the boring text ads we've been shackled with for so long, finally, we will experience web 3.0, an infinite land of beautiful colored, animated flash ads that shall bring us happiness and hope for a new bolder, brighter, blinkier future. On behalf of slashdotters everywhere, I want to thank you google! Thank you! Let the flash goodness begin!
google is a great search engine, i've found all kinds of stuff there.
This is the kind of bleeding edge information that keeps me coming back to Slashdot, day after day.
I've tried Google on your recommendation, and it's awesome. It works great on my browser, even though the browser won't support frames until the next version. And Google's search results are so much better than Webcrawler's, I think I might switch permanently.
If moderation could change anything, it would be illegal.
I must be missing something... all I see is a bunch of stylized "F"s in boxes.

Come on you little fucking pussy bitch. Post with your real account. Hell, send me an e-mail through my site with your address and I'll come and kick the living fuck out of your pussy bitch ass. We'll see who the fuck is a whiny crybaby.
