Executive Summary

After a couple of minutes of driving south on 101 from SFO, me and my  co-founder buddy realized there was no valley. Instead, we found an old long Mexican road taking us through the suburbian fast-food life. And it all seemed pretty flat to us. Buildings were houses or 3-story offices for real-estate brokers. Where was the corporate HQs? Next to that pizza-place?

Was this really it?

Is this where they throw money at you if you're an advanced user of basic features in Microsoft Power Point?

It sure didn't look like we had imagined. And they all spoke Spanish anyway, so what was the point of having left Chile in the first place?

Eh, what the heck... lets just find a great bar and party all night long...

Overtising

Posted by oskar on 18/07/2008 at 07:40 PM

 … Is when you overdo advertising.

Now… I might not be the smartest guy around, but I am a fairly fluent web-user. Probably top 20% in the world. I could not remove this ad from ask.com, there was just no way… and as you can see it LITERALLY made it IMPOSSIBLE to use Alexa...

I tried to click on it, maybe 30 times. Maybe more. But nothing.

Any other good ideas to get rid of it? I already did take a screen-shot and kind of “wiped” the ask-box away using a photo-editor but couldn’t see what’s behind (and it’s hard to use a screen-shot of a web-site. Al Gore has still to invent the offline Internet.)

 

Please help me out here.
