Google has filed for a patent that may be a signal of the company’s intention to enter the “physical advertising industry”.
The patent filing mentions placing adverts on billboards, with the primary innovation being that they’re interactive and connected to the Internet. The system apparently works by only advertising products that are available and in stock within stores in the local area. Stores will be able to buy advertising on these local electronic billboards through a similar system to how AdSense currently works: by logging into a computer and buying them.
Wow!

Recognizing the importance of the User Generated Content revolution, and how users are controlling the digital age we live in, TIME magazine selected ‘YOU’ as the Person of The Year.
This comes following the massive successes, and buyouts, of YouTUBE, MySpace and others.
TIME says such companies have succeeded in “seizing the reins of the global media, for founding and framing the new digital democracy, for working for nothing and beating the pros at their own game.”
‘YOU’ beat some tough competition this year for Person of the Year from the likes of Iran’s President Ahmandinejad, China’s President Hu Jintao, North Korean’s Kim Jon Il, and President Bush.
