My online advertising blind spot.

myblogs@rickcusick.com (Rick Cusick) — Wed, 30 Aug 2006 05:24:00 +0000

You may know this, but I work in advertising. OK, not really, but I work WITH advertising.

I noticed the other day I have a blind spot for adverts when I browse the web. I almost never notice online ads anymore. The sponsored links next to searches on google? Never see them. The ads on my favorite blogs? I know where the ads are relative to the content, and anyway I use an RSS feeder to read them, so there's usually no ads.

Interesting if they start putting ads on RSS feeds...

What do you listen to...

when nothing you usually listen to sounds good?

Right now I'm there.

Listening to all the Beatles I can find on the server...no song deeper than I Am the Walrus.

Pluto. Not a planet.

First they came for goofy, and now pluto.

Shame...

Cartoon.

Memory has an image of a cartoon from after the US Civil War, of the Statue of Liberty weeping over the casket of Abraham Lincoln.

Methinks this cartoon is on that level:

Who the hell is JonBenet Ramsey?

What a world.

Breaking: Pluto - still a planet.

Fantastic.

Bummer for Beckham

myblogs@rickcusick.com (Rick Cusick) — Tue, 04 Jul 2006 18:08:27 +0000

Total misery for England.

It's too bad, too. I was hoping they would make it to the final, and Beckham was having a great Cup.

Great advert

The New Civic (UK Ad)

Close, but no cigar.

Thanks guys.

Nice try by the US ends in defeat at the hands of a talented side from Ghana. I disagreed with the Penalty Kick call, but what can you do?

See you in South Africa in 2010.

We was robbed by a corrupt ref.

myblogs@rickcusick.com (Rick Cusick) — Sat, 17 Jun 2006 23:32:29 +0000

What a joke. And by that I mean the ref.

Unreal. After the massive scandals that have rocked Italian Soccer recently, FIFA decides to have the USA-Italy game officiated by a corrupt referee.

I hope the Czechs take the Azzuri apart. It would be worth it to lose to Ghana, just to watch Italy take the early flight home.

OMFG

How's about some punches with that code?
