with national advertisers by teaming with Real
Cities. Founded as AdOne in 1998 and acquired by
Lee Enterprises in March 2006, DotConnect is the
nation's oldest and most extensive network of
local online media sites.

2007 was to expand the network's reach in the
top markets, as well as boost local market
penetration for specific advertisers," said
David Fitzpatrick, vice president of sales
for Real Cities. "The combination of sites in
the DotConnect Media network allows us to do both.
We are very excited about the enormous potential
that lies ahead as we work with DotConnect Media
to increase the size of our advertising footprint."

more than 1,400 local news websites. The partnership

the most highly trafficked local sites in their markets."

mirrors that of Real Cities: younger, more educated and

affluent markets in the United States, including New York,

Google ADSense in your games! in your face!!
Yes he is from Microsoft and he has just put on the web what he has jotted down at the Casual connect, and his own comments. So forgive him if he sounds not so friendly. It is just the way it is presented. What is more, if you thought he is against Google and routing for MS, why would he be blogging at Google Blogger rather than MS live Spaces. He knows good stuff when it comes to be choosing them.
But the truth of the matter is that Google's team has not done a proper job of explaining what they intend to do with in-game ads. Will they jump out of my Wii? I don't think it will be on my XBOX elite. If they did, MS will have a explanation to those mysterious crashes.
It is hard to explain what Mr. Pallister is pointing out. But you will understand once you read the post!
He finishes with an analysis that starts with;

Yahoo losing in Display ads (banner ads)?
July 11 (Bloomberg) -- Yahoo! Inc. lost the battle with Google Inc. in searching the Internet and now may have jeopardized its lead in display advertisements.
Even a new chief executive officer and head of sales may not be able to prevent rival social-networking sites MySpace and Facebook Inc. from eroding Yahoo's revenue from the banner ads that make up about 40 percent of the company's sales.
Yahoo, boxed in by Google in search and by newer competitors elsewhere, hasn't been able to develop original products that will give it an unassailable position. With co-founder Jerry Yang installed as CEO three weeks ago and the stock trading 38 percent below its five-year high, Yahoo shares look cheap to 18 analysts who rate the stock ``buy.'' They may get even cheaper.
``It's very possible the stock could go down,'' said Scott Kessler, an analyst at Standard & Poor's in New York who rates the shares ``hold.'' ``People are coming to the conclusion that the recent changes will cause some kind of stock appreciation and operational improvement. I just don't see it.''
