When will the Yahoo Publishing Network unveil a similar type of program. When is the launch date?

They have signed with RevenueScience to do this. It doesn't look like YPN itself is coming out any time soon.

There is a page at Yahoo where you can give them your email address and they will notify you when the program has started.

Yes - this is certainly taking longer to come out than I'd expected.

Since I doubt Yahoo are hanging about for no reason, perhaps the delay indicates that targeting ads to content is proving to be a challenge.

They send out a nice list of sites that are supposidly using the ads, but when you go to the sites and check you find maybe 1 in 10 actually uses it.

It's a shame they hang it for so long. I mean, come on, you own Overture, you have the budget. What's going on?! :P
