What the heck is a text ad?
Thursday, September 19, 2002 by Delicious | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Studio audience was polled and the response was that most don't know what text ads are. Are they ads with text w/o graphics?

I want a Viper
The new concept one. Or a benzo. I like German engineering.
CLK500 or CL600 No window piller!!! So cool!
And what about the Nissan Altima (the new one) Didn't like it at first but my budget will not allow anything more. Now if I get rich off of the text ads, promoting health, skinning, world news and goodness in general, I can get my CLK!!
Allong with the following:
Yukon Denali
Lexus Sportcross
It would be offical that I made it if I can get the Aston Martin V12... but I would sell it to a charity after a year. Whats the point of having it? Just want to ride in it for a while. But I'll keep my Sportscross thank you.
And all because of text ads!!

Jafo: pfft, You see fast cars all the time. Driving one is for wimps, isn't it more manly to dodge them as they slide around the curves? You even get a better view! You can't see them if you are in the car...

If WinCustomise can't afford the bandwith, I wouldn't have any problem with plain text ads on it, as long as there is no distracting images, and as long as the ads are RELEVANT to the webpage they're on, unlike 80% of ads out there at the moment. That's the main problem with ads on the net. If the ads all over the pages I visit actually had something to do with the page, I wouldn't be as pissed off whenever I see them.
Of course, I'd rather have no ads at all, but that dosen't seem realistic, judging by what some people are like.

I just want a car.
Text ads can help me do it!!!..well maybe...
Sooooo I think, Ryan8024 should check out my wonderful news story on websites and advertising.
No ads on the web? The only way I can see that happening is by having really boring pages (no images what so ever elemenates allot of the bandwidth problems) and no more asp, php, cfm. jhtml.. and so on because those programs and scripts use specail servers. Even Microsoft FrontPage needs a server.
It really was a dream with the internet being totally free. When it started it was jsut a bunch of scientists. Text only pages... now look at it!! Keep in mind also that when the internet started it was handle wrong and totally misunderstood.
I want a Nissan Altima... I am sure now.

Don't think he has. The internet was far from text-only before the marketing trolls tried to take hold of it. Or as Public Enemy used to say: "don't believe the hype".

Baker...yes, I get to see fast cars...and up close...[had my foot run over by an F1....OK, so I was pushing it at the time]...and I don't really like Porsches....they're like Vee Dubs that someone sat on before they were 'hard'...same affliction as Lotus Europa's....and I've met the likes of Piquet or Berger...last driver I spoke to was Ralf [Michael's brother]..but it ain't the same....buy me a DB4 Zagato Aston then...that'll keep me happy...it's only an 'old car'...should pick one up 'cheap'...
Good luck...
Good luck...
