Today, the platform was rid of two advertising partners, Chitika and Adversal, who host advertisements on the web. When Travis originally acquired the platform, he placed Google Ads on all the wikis, regardless what content they held.
This worked for a good half a year, but then Google caught some websites with content that violated their policy, and shut down their ads on the sites that were found in violation of their policy. As a resolution to this, Travis added Chitika and Adversal. Any websites created had Chitika and Adversal as the advertisers until the wiki was reviewed to see if it fit Google's guidelines. However, Chiticka and Adversal were starting to become invasive, they messed with formats, and some could be viewed as offensive to some, so they were removed today in favor of some really user-friendly advertisements, made by Travis himself.

Macs and aliens. The Next Net 25: 25 startups that are reinventing the web - Mar. A new Web revolution is picking up steam, and the next Google or Microsoft could emerge from the companies that are in the vanguard. SAN FRANCISCO (Business 2.0 Magazine) - Things are really crackling in Silicon Valley these days. There's the frenzied startup action, the rising rivers of VC cash, even the occasional bubble-icious long-term stock prediction (Google $2,000, anyone?).
There's so much happening that the buzzword recently employed to try to encapsulate the era -- "Web 2.0" -- now seems hopelessly inadequate, defined and redefined into near meaninglessness by squadrons of aspiring entrepreneurs, marketers, and other fortune hunters. So it seems a particularly useful moment to wave away the smoke and home in on what's really core. Don't be distracted by the Valley's hype-o-meter pushing toward the red: There's something very real -- and very powerful -- afoot.
