I'm just a noob but i think i could use something like that. Not for advertising tho. Buggered if I'll pay for it - rather do something up meself. A dumb question - why do you think it's stupid? Are you crticising that it's advertising or the concept?

Well, i have this habit of moving the mouse pointer over words as I'm reading. The last thing I want to see is a pop-up window as I'm donig this. Now, if it popped up on a click instead of a mouseover, I guess it wouldn't be too bad. I just don't like the concept of doing stuff on a mouseover (other than highlighting, etc.). That make sense? ~Nitron.

I've seen this technology employed before. I don't recall ever visiting those sites again - they're as annoying as hell. X| Cheers, Vikram.

Hey there's an idea, off to the drawing board :cool:

No. With half the screen taken up by banner ads, you still have half the screen in which to read the article. With IntelliTxt, you have all of the screen taken up by ads, even in those rare cases where the site owner fails to combine them with banner ads...

What disturbs me about it is that its hijacking what used to be a tooltip. So I keep thinking I'm gonna see some useful additional info about what's highlighted but in the end they just want my money. This statement is false.
