+1: Now making Display ads more relevant

[Brett Peters]

Just got an email from google and it appears that google is introducing +1 on ads so users can share ads with friends which will somehow make ads more relevant, Really does not make any sense to me whatsoever.

I personally will be using the Opt out but am interested what others will be doing

Great way of increasing clicks and therefore revenue for Google.

Google is starting to bug me these days. I still like them but they are being really pushy with their stuff as of late. Example, the big stupid arrow directing you to sign up for google plus. Yes google, i see the link I'm not blind.

It seems interested in Google+ has really died as of late. Taking it out of beta was probably supposed to make it a subject of discussion again, but I really haven't seen that happening. At this point, Facebook is just too big to fail.

I've disabled it on mine; I just don't see anything in it that helps me (as the publisher) to generate additional revenue.

It just seems another way for Google to track and target.

Cheers,

I think some people, like my mom, like to share deals with their friends.
If I saw an ad that said, Xenforo 50% *one day sale* I might +1 it.

Odd, I've noticed a lot mo people being active (Not myself so much as I'm not big on networking in the first place).

Wouldn't help me - I've already got a licence!

I don't like the idea of a google+1 button next to ads, but that may just be me..

Well I've only got one forum, not much point buying more than one really.
