WebWord Weblog Posting Posting Date: August 26, 2002 Banner ads we'd like to see and page 2 and page 3 and page 4 and page 5 -- "Whatever happened to so-called 'truth in advertising?' Take a look at these fake banner ads and see if they aren't a bit closer to the reality of high-tech." (Jack comments: ValleyOfTheGeeks.com wants you to use these ads to link to them. If I saw these banners in the wild, I'd ignore them as easily as the real thing.)
Reader Comments...
ValleyOfTheGeeks could really use an index page too, so that inbound visitors realize this is a running feature. Posted by: Jack on August 26, 2002 09:44 PM
Jack, I suffer banner blindness when it comes to these ads. If anything, they reinforce the brands. How many people actually read banner ads, let along glance at them? I'd argue that these are just as (in)effective as any other banner ads. Posted by: John S. Rhodes on August 26, 2002 09:57 PM
So what would a parody of a Webword banner ad look like? ...a banner ad.(?) Posted by: Lyle - Usability Guru on August 27, 2002 01:04 AM
I do like the National Lampoon parody banner ad (buy an RFTM hat or we shoot this dog). Posted by: Lydia on August 27, 2002 02:19 PM
