Adcursor, New Technology
visit adcursor.com and leave your mouse idle for 7 seconds. What do you think?
Looks interesting.

How many of you leave your mouse idle for 7 seconds while surfing the web? Or while using the computer at all? I sure don't, maybe I'm just the oddball.

Good point!
The only time my mouse is idle is when I'm typing, and I won't be clicking any ads then as my hands aren't even close to the mouse.
While the technology has awesome potential, it needs some more thinking before it can become a viable, profitable advertising solution.
But, hey, atleast it's not underlining text with yellow advertiser linksDan Ushman <dan@ratestar.net>

I've actually tested this for a few ad networks already. End users hate it. The adcursor box covers up what they are trying to read or type.

I realize that this isen't a big deal, but it still IS copyright violation. If they would have asked I would have let them, now I'm a bit mad.
You may want to look into this before you try anything un-productive.}:8) Supermoo
