Content All the Way

By Brooks Jordan | March 2, 2009

This is a great example of how an ad can act like content, can be content on the Web.

It’s an interesting mix of short-form video (15 seconds long), mini banner, and longer-than-usual text. I found it at the bottom of an RSS feed for ZDNet’s Between the Lines blog on a “White House 2.0” piece.

I never shied away from this ad; it didn’t look like an ad, smell like an ad, or talk like an ad. It was content all the way. Sure, everyone likes whales, but that is so not the point.
