Now Running Ads

June 24th, 2009

AdsI recently got a £50 ad credit for Google AdWords so why not use it.

The ads are running now on Google and other sites around the web.

I have only been using it for an hour or so. So I can’t comment on the service however I will be posting my full review later this year.

Update: The ads have been out there for about 1 hour and been seen 140 times

Google Wave

May 29th, 2009

Google announced a new service coming later this year called Wave. So far I haven’t played with it and all I know is what they told people at Google I/O when they unveiled the developer preview.

I have signed up to be notified when they are ready to let more people in and I will be reviewing it shortly after I get in.
