- melvinram 16y agoI could imaging paying for a sponsored link at the end of the presentation or below the presentation if someone was watching a presentation on something relevant to my products/services. The problem: People generally prefer not to read. Yet, people are curious creatures. If they could quench their curiosity without having to read, they will.
- il 16y agoThe problem is that by definition, people will not go to Qwiki for long-tail searches (because they won't have good content on them). And long-tail, specific, targeted searches/users is where the money is for sponsored links.
- dstein 16y agoThe problem: People generally prefer not to read. In Mac OS I have keymapped Option-S assigned to the built-in text-to-speech on the fly, so anytime there's text on any page that I want read back to me I can quickly do so with a keystroke. You know what? I never use it. I generally prefer to read.
