Biz, Tech: Like big, obtrusive ads? Of course you do. More are coming.

  • In times of recession, online ads get bigger. MSNBC is among the first in a long line of advertisers to switch to wide-format ads that take up full pages and recede, that make sidebars ultra-huge and makes it so that they never go away, ever. They’re all part of a group called the Online Publishers Assocation, which has agreed to use these ads. We have a feeling reading articles on the Internet is going to get annoying, but at least these sites aren’t charging. *sigh* source
