Unfortunately , we ’re not all lucky enough to see this exciting new experiment in merchandising , at least not yet . Google appear to be in the midst of a test , show these ad to some user and not to others . I just check my own Gmail and did n’t see the new substance from corporations I was hoping for .
My inbox is fill to the lip with junk e-mail , though ! That ’s one form of ad that Google does n’t seem to like . In just the last hebdomad , Google announcednew effortsto protect exploiter from junk e-mail . Funny , if ya ’ think about it , because these newfangled ads are interchangeable : content that you did n’t sign up for clogging your email inbox . Of course , the big difference is that with unconstipated previous junk e-mail , Google does n’t get a cut of the profits .
If Google follows through on this new ad architectural plan , it will be one more entryway ina maturate trend . The technical school business — andjust about every other business organisation — is strong at lick recover more way to show you more ads . Apple , for example , shovednew ads in the App Storerecently , and reportedly plans on new advertizement in its Apple TV service . Meta somehow found a means to putmore ads on Instagram , and Google ’s already introducednew advertizement formatson other parts of the web as well .
