Not sure why a lot of the posts above are so negative on this. Facts are banner advertising on Facebook, MySpace, and etc are horrific. CPMs there are microscopic so anything that engages users is a huge improvement.

Thanks for posting.

Bah, banner ads are going anywhere for a good long while, especially on non-social sites. Too much branding to give them up. I still see excellent CTR on plain ol' static image banners. As long as they continue to produce good revenue I am not going to dispense with them.

Well now that I know I'm not supposed to follow that seagate ad in the upper left of this page ...

Really I went here:
http://www.contextoptional....

They have flash running a bit in the upper left on nine images of something they have done and it goes so fast you cannot read it and if you try clicking on one of the images it double loads one over another ... and it that is to convey what they do???

I waited a while and it seemed to then work as planned. Maybe it is a slow download or something? But it was run-away and annoying and I'd never have stuck around if I wasn't planning to complain about it ...

What's the attraction of social networking? What's the attraction of Twitter? I've logged into Facebook, MySpace, Wayport, and Twitter multiple times. Still don't get it. What's the attraction? Why does anyone find these sites of interest? I just don't get it.

What is Microsoft's "new network"? Am I that far out of the loop or is Microsoft just not that newsworthy anymore? What is that, link me...

hmmm...

But the bottom line is that no matter how entertaining the ads are - are they driving prospects to buy???.

Giant companies still manage to get their tech products reviewed by many to blogs - so ads really are not that vital when you have permanent viral marketing. However, for the vast majority, having innovate ads that don't generate an measurable, immediate ROI (especially in THIS economy), may not really be helping your finances all that much. :-|

Of course, one benefit is branding and even getting exposure for possible venture funding, but there is no guarantee that will happen.

I would agree that the plain old banner ad is going out of style, but those interactive flash ads can be very distracting.
