Web Ads Work Better Than TV Ads

Fohootville, We Hate You writes "According to a new study, Internet advertisements work better than television advertisements. Internet video watchers were reported to be 47 percent more "engaged" by the advertising they watched than were traditional TV viewers. The report does not mention whether pornographic internet advertisements were included in the study."

Not banner ads, you idiots

The ads they are talking about are ads run inline in the video, not the crap surrounding the video frame.

The only times I ever click on them is by mistake.

Yeah, I hate when they make the last thumbnail a link to the pay site.

Yes, several times when they offered exactly what I was looking for at exactly the right time. I clicked on a Google text ad this morning looking for custom rubber stamps. The fact that the merchant uses Google's checkout system, designated by the Google Checkout icon...*another ad*....sealed the deal for me.

Hang on

Are you trying to say that there is porn on the Internet?
