FeedBurner serving AdSense at a feed near you.
Posted by melting on Jun 1, 2008
On Friday FeedBurner has done the unthinkable, it announced it will begin serving AdSense in publishers feeds. In case the sarcasm didn’t come through, this announcement has been expected ever since the large company from Mountain View CA, Google, acquired them in mid 2007.
I am sure in that time period the sales teams have been fully integrated in order to provide more options to customers who want more options to reach their customers. The perfect next step for Google is to integrate AdSense and AdWords into all the feeds that are served by FeedBurner.
I have noticed Feeds have extra inventory that is easily filled by Google’s behemoth of an add biz. The next big thing is the final roll-out of AdSense for feeds.

…needless to say they didn’t get any more work done because they were too busy taking videos.
This mighty bot can climb walls and do the chacha all at the same time. Well I lied about the chacha. It is good that they are finally using the electrostatic cling technology from fabs to hold wafers for something truly worthwhile. Well enough sarcasm for one night, read the full article at Popular Mechanics or where I first heard about it here.
CPM’s aren’t everything!!!
Posted by melting on Apr 30, 2008
Just to start off with CPM means cost per thousand in the advertising world. That is if a site shows an advertisement one thousand times they would get that CPM. And yes CPM is not everything, but this is what drives most web companies since they want to be free to users. SAI is running an article stating that Linkedin is making $75. This is huge money since many Facebook apps and presumably pages are 50 cents. On top of this Linkedin gets some users to pay for their services.
