I wonder how much money companies are shelling out to get a spot that big.....

Wow, that thing is huge. I agree, wonder what that CPM is?

I think it is awesome! WOW! (probably will be annoying next week though)

Wow... very glossy fashion magazine.
It helps a lot that the Shishedo spot is a nicely designed ad, but if the size and format becomes widely used, it's only a matter of time before we see a flashing neon green giganto-GIF animation eating up 1/4 of some otherwise innocent looking site.

Cue memories of the Futurama episode where they visit the internet in the future "My god, its full of ads!".
Strange, I can't get it to load on mine - I waited and waited but nothing.

TPK,

Ah thanks that was it, my security settings were too high (silly me :) ).
They look quite tasteful but as mivox says it will only be a matter of time before we will be attempting to shock even [big] larger[/big] monkeys than we get now.
