Looks like A2K is on the "cutting edge" when it comes to ads.
Quote:Visit the gaming portal IGN.com or the computing news site BetaNews, and you might find some Web links in green instead of blue. As you move your mouse over them, ads pop up.
IGN and BetaNews are among about 200 sites using Vibrant Media Inc.'s new technology for targeting advertisements.
Its IntelliTXT service scans Web pages for keywords and highlights certain words, such as "SUV" or "Toyota." Point to the word, and a rectangular box with a text ad floats over the page, much like dialogue balloons in comic strips.

Of course, it costs money to join the Motley Fool. A2K is free. I prefer free.
We used Google's AdSense on the first day it was released.
We used AdSonar while it was in BETA.
Yep, we keep abreast of any contextual advertising so as to not have to experiment with any intrusive creatives like popups.
Great tattoos? Sexually transmitted diseases? Pamela Anderson? Oh, excuse me, I thought you said Motley Crue......my bad.......
