Gamevertisements

Okay, 

I am I the only poor fool who just can't resist playing those silly "games" on MySpace?  You know the one's I'm talking about, where when you "win" you get the reward of some small number of ringtones for you mobile phone?

I mean, how can I not help the woman beat the Sumo?  Or the man escape from the gorilla?

And yes, sometimes I even answer the questions, like which Pop Star is this?  Though I've found out, that they actually don't care which answer you give.  I even sometimes answer wrong on purpose, but I still "win" the "prize" anyway. 

I know, I'm evil, because its people like me that make those banner-ad people think that their ads work.   But they don't.  I've never once done anything more than close the popup window.   I just don't understand how those ads generate revenue for the end company. 

Ooo...here's one where I get to give "W" a black eye.  Sorry, gotta go.
