    VAseo, this is a very big deal for the industry and webmasters.

    We have 3 major players now, Google, Yahoo and AOL, they will all offer products for webmasters to make money.

    This will keep the payouts much higher to have more players.

    www.trafficmarketplace.com is also a great company.

    Hava great one man! :eek:

    That is interesting- I wonder if they will change the way the company is run, how the ads are displayed, etc.

    AOL is losing market share with their ISP business, so they are going to add tools to stay in the game, this is just one.

    The next move could be a purchase of Lycos American Division to add a search engine, that would compliment the Advertising.com purchase.

    They could buy the Lycos American division for a song and a dance, 200 million or so is what they were looking for.

    How you doing SB? :eek:

    Yeah, Shawn is too smart to tell me anything useful, but we will focus our investigations on him down the road after he passes 200 Million in sales.

    I am working on my first DP/Google conspiracy, I just have not made the story public yet.



    You know that one when they were showing the Superman Ads on DP, I think it was on the thread that VS started. Funny stuff, Funny night, I am still laughing about that, may never stop, the only joy in life I have. :cool:
