Admob vs. Kyle
Admob is a mobile advertising company I’ve been using for the last six months. It is the Adsense of mobile internet. Admob typically only approves publishers that have a mobile-compatible website (like this for example). Admob was recently acquired by Google. The FTC is now asking for more details on the acquisition, as Google is starting to become more and more suspicious of monopolizing the mobile advertising industry.
Some other .mobi Advertising companies include:
- Third Screen Media - http://www.thirdscreenmedia.com/
- AdMob – http://www.admob.com
- Google AdSense - http://google.com/adsense
- Jumptap - http://jumptap.com/
- InMobi - http://inmobi.com/

Admob is still a revaltively new advertising network. That didn’t keep Google from purchasing them in 2009. Admob is completely taken care of financially, which means everybody wins at the end of the day. Focusing on mobile traffic primarily, Admob is continually providing publishers like you and me with tools to [...]

I bought my Nexus One Friday afternoon around 3 o’clock central time. Without hesitating, I chose the FedEx Overnight shipping option. Because Google hates me, my phone was not shipped on Friday. This means I won’t be getting my phone until Tuesday because it won’t ship until Monday. Damn this infernal [...]

Kyle Loves Google Voice
I’m really impressed with Google’s new product, Google Voice. Originally a company called Grand Central created the online tool in 2005. Google then purchased the company in 2007 and is now relaunching it with many, many improvements. Basically, Google Voice creates an “online phone number” that can be tied to as many phone numbers that [...]

It’s not like me to dedicate an entire post for the sole purpose of complaining.
Wait, yes it is.
The reason I’m taking time out of my life to flame Linkshare is because of their complete disregard for the quality of their system in its entirety. It’s a mouthful, but I can write something negative about everything [...]

The book basically covers a wide scope of consumer and social behavior. For example, every buyer decides whether or not to purchase something by weighing the positives and negatives. [...]
