It's impossible to market any products that I advertiser by using the mobile web (none of the advertisers I work with have mobile storefronts), so I won't be using mobile ads at all.

I have a feeling that will apply to a lot of advertisers.

Don't trust all this new-fangled technology.

I'm a big fan of keeping things simple. I'm guessing that the traffic levels would never justify the time and effort.

But I may be proven wrong...

It could be (should be?) a big hit for local stuff or other things people to tend to do on the move - sports, news, directions, etc. I have a few smaller personal sites I may try and test since it's free. Not expecting much (because of markets, not the technology) so I won't be disappointed

I'm still unsure to be honest - I guess I'll just wait and see how things pan out over time.

It does, however, look very interesting indeed ;-)

Cheers

Nope. I doubt any of my markets would convert well for these ads.

I ran these mobile ads about 3 months ago. It was good cheap traffic but of course I couldn't convert it due to the cell phone display issues.

As others have said it would do great with local services.
