Adcenter now up and running

On Wednesday Adcenter opened for business to everyone. You can sign up at this link: https://adcenter.msn.com/
I believe it costs $5 to sign up and you need a valid credit card. From what I am hearing, it will be awhile before MSN comes out with an AdSense counterpart, it first has to build up plenty of advertisers. ONe of the big features is that you can tweak your ads to be shown by day, time and even geographic region. Hope this info is helpful.

They sure are a bunch of assholes there at Microsoft.

Will the ads only ahow in IE 6+ as well?!!! Outrageous IMO to not support the latest and greatest FF.

In Opera I get this:

Anyone else with FireFox getting the browser incompatibility warning and no signup form? Seems odd they'd not support FF but allow Opera...

They have not supported any browser other than IE 6. IE 7 doesn't work either, ironically. Apparently more browser support is in the plans, but I don't have any idea on the timeline.

Mac users are excluded too, even with the IE for Macs version.

There isn't one. No publisher program has been publically annouced.

They have announced that they will begin testing their contextual advertising this summer. There could be a publisher program - ContentAds - possibly in 2006.

The adsense type program, will probably come later on in the year. There is a program in the works.
