nah :-)

personal videoblog full of baby shots, imagine http://loobylu.com/ on  
video. The early posts with the babies, there, Johnson and Johnson  
written all over them :-)

But seriously, most advertising we are familiar with grew up with mass  
media so it is very generalist and needs to be a shot gun - scatter  
and hope a couple of pellets land. But ideally they want things to be  
very highly targetted, so if you have very specific content then it  
can carry very specific ads, and this is worth paying for. And it is  
hard to think of *any* subject that could not carry advertising.  
Whether you think it is tasteful, or appropriate, is a different  
question :-)
