The article is unclear on whether the graphical ads will appear next to the main (text) search results. I don't think they will:
One format being discussed is a box, which may include a photograph and a logo, that would appear on the main search results pages toward the bottom of the advertisements in the right-hand column. Traditional banner ads may appear on Google Image Search and the Froogle shopping site, which already include many photographs, an executive involved said. No advertising is contemplated for the Google home page.
I think having commerical graphics on pages that already display many graphics is a good compromise.
If this capacity is filled with illegal "warez" mp3s, you can be fined up to 75 000 000 USD. (204 800 megabytes, 4 megabytes per song, 10 songs per CD, average CD price 15 USD).
In fact some RIAA subpoenas have been seeking up to $150,000 per song.
Try Adblocking any of the images in the bottom left corner. The URLs look something like http://www.afcyhf.com/image-1181994-10294458, and since the domain name is throwaway, there's not much point blocking by that either.
It feels like this is just making the web spammier. Where is there to go next -- image recognition for ad banners?
I really hope this isn't gonna be one of those things they do without thinking about it beforehand. Sure, it's nice to imagine lazing back in the reclined driver's seat, issuing commands "Turn left! Right! Brake!"
On the plus side, it would put a stop to cellphones in cars, after a few freak accidents "That's 'right' Fred, that's a great idea! Shhhhi..."
Then again, mapping "Shhiii..." to the brakes could be fun too.
And you Americans could bring the legal driving age right down from that crazy 13 years old (in some states, isn't it?) to about 2-3, junior's first words.

I'm wondering how 'any number of points' are sent to the software, and what it does with them.
:>
Did anyone else get an idea for a DoS attack on one of these?

... fear of losing control of classified info, but damn, these never had any!
Or so they say?

Who has $7.5bn handy?
...advertisers will start finding ways around it.
I came across a site today where this is already happening.

Now that we've actually built a starter robot, we're in a great position to talk about programming and wireless technology issues in future articles.
See all that stuff in there Homer? That's why your robot never worked.
