Jack Valenti says stupid things --
really, really stupid things 08/03/2004 07:46 PM
Tim Wu has rounded up some of the dumbest things that Jack Valenti said -- and he's found some real howlers, things that make Jack's infamous condemnation of the VCR ("the Boston Stranger of the American film industry") look like a walk in the park.

On the nascent cable industry, in 1974
"[Cable will become] a huge parasite in the marketplace, feeding and fattening itself off of local television stations and copyright owners of copyrighted material. We do not like it because we think it wrong and unfair."

On the dangers on media concentration, 1984 Op-Ed
"Will a democratic society allow just three corporate entities to wield unprecedented dominion over television, the most decisive voice in the land? There are now only three national networks .... There will never be more than three national networks."

On the public domain, 1995
"A public domain work is an orphan. No one is responsible for its life. But everyone exploits its use, until that time certain when it becomes soiled and haggard, barren of its previous virtues. How does the consumer benefit from the steady decline of a film's quality?"

Do you block banner ads? 09/18/2004 05:21 PM
We here at MacMerc.com have a love/hate relationship with banner advertisements. On the one hand they are annoying--especially those "Click the monkey and win a prize" ones. But on the other hand, they help us pay our hosting fees.

Quite a while ago, as a public service to our readers, we posted an article on ad blocking and now that sufficient time has passed and our Google AdSense revenues are dwindling, we thought it might be the appropriate time to see if some method of ad blocking as become a standard part of your internet experience.

Google introduces Adsense banner ads.

Google has recently introduced banner ads for their adsense program, so perhaps all the talk about how text ads perform better is not true.

You could argue that banner ads are a different thing, that they are richer media and thus brand advertising. But the difference is that Google's image ads do not pay publishers on an impressions basis, but for clicks, just like current contextual text ads.

Adwords works. People click on text ads which are relevant to a search because they are actively looking for something. But perhaps when ads are served alongside static content, the conversion rate is lower, and perhaps people are starting to ignore them now that the novelty has worn off. So maybe in your face image ads are back, for good reason.

The problem for Google is that image ads are not only 'in your face', they are very much in the face of a website. With the renewed confidence that content publishers now have, my guess is that CPM impressions based advertising will be back. If publishers have leverage they will want the guaranteed revenue that being paid for traffic gives them.

Google got rid of all CPM advertising making a big bet on the best of both worlds CPC model that sits in between an advertiser and publishers needs. If CPM is back is that bad news for Google?

Yes terday I listed the finalists in the FeedDemon banner contest, and as promised I'm ready to announce the winners.

And the winner is...well, every one of the finalists is a winner! I found it impossible to choose a single winner among the finalists in each category, since I could see myself using all of their banners. So, all three of the finalists will receive a free copy of both TopStyle Pro and FeedDemon. My thanks again to everyone who submitted a design, and my congratulations to the three winners below:

• Olegas Kurasovas
• Albert Tanutama
• Christopher Owens

Now that the contest is over, I've created a page of FeedDemon banners and buttons:
