ASCII Art in Paid Search

Filed under: Technology, Trends & Insight — Mike Laurie @ 1:19 pm

Really interesting example of ASCII art in paid search, if only it was possible, I’m not convinced that it ever actually ran. This is a classic illustration of the potention for diffusion within advertising. Apparently Google doesn’t allow this on account of repetitive punctuation. Well, at least we don’t have to put up with doubel exclamation marks. BUY NOW!! L@@K

Screen grab of ascii art in paid-for search.

Found via Martin’s comments on Iain’s post about search. Search being an area I certainly need to ‘wonk off’ on.
