As a big news story, that video will be viewed by countless people.
Advertisers are wise to attach to it.

It's not about them having ads, it was just the type of ad...for me
it broke the flow, it seemed intrusivebut I understand that ads
are what makes the world go round.

I thought it was funny - just made me laugh at the advertiser - but
yeah, i'm pretty amazed at the stupidity of advertisers, still making
one-size-fits-all adverts, even little 5 second pre-roll ones.
simplistic ideas of brand identity etc mean they can't get their
heads around supplying
I hear what you're saying, but bills have to be paid. I don't know
anything about boingboing, so I can't speak for them specifically, but
that's the game that's being played here. Get people to click on your
video, get people to click on your ads, get revenue to pay people's
salaries. There's
Oh indeed I do know that is the nature of the biz but I can't help
but think, maybe an ad for not smoking or maybe a company that is
doing green or social things, etc...maybe that would have been a
better fit than the ad that was on there...again I know the realility

hmm... I had assumed that Heath was talking about overlay ads DURING
the program. I don't have a problem with pre-roll and post-roll ads
of whatever type. They just have to be integrated properly with the
subject matter. I say if pre-roll's going to be peppy and bouncy, get

came after the intro soundbite from jay and after the boingboing tv
ident, so it wasn't just pre-roll, it was inserted after you've
already thought the episode was beginning.
it wouldn't have been *as* bad (though still
Well, like I said, I agree with you entirely. I was shocked enough
just reading the twitter or link here or whatever that informed me
that they had been over there AT ALL. I thought they were in the
sticks somewhere making bread and not using plastic. When I read the
link, I was like THEY could
I don't think they have to have different advertisers for different
moods. Their advertiser just needs to provide maybe two or three
different styles of their advert. And they don't even need to be
that different.
For instance, if the Crowdfire advert here had just been without that
It's funny I didn't even notice the ad's DURING the interview just
the one's before and afterI was too distracked by the blonde to
notice the overlays.. ;)
Another thing that is funny for me, is that I have always been in

That was my fault for ASSUMING you meant mid-roll overlay
I don't accept those excuses on their behalf. My point is not about
art, or they way the advert affects the way the viewer engages with
the interview. I wouldn't expect them to give a damn about the
effect on the aesthetics of the video their ad is inserted into.

Thanks for the link. So interesting. I'm glad they were able to
