Onion: This week in History, Columbus swims and Presidential corpses

 

Just a heads up on video advertising, something we here get our fill with, let me tell you.

We enjoy the free Internet only because of the advertising, if it were not for that, there would only be a few large subscription sites. Some are worse than others, the worst being VIACOM, which is Comedy Central. They are also the absolute worst on copyright infringement.

The happy medium for video ads is the 15 second ad at the beginning, but most are now going with 30 seconds which is too much for a couple minutes of video. So the model you notice here in the Onion I hope to see go viral.  30 second ads with a SKIP option at 15 seconds. Seems reasonable.
