Petter has only managed to notch up two podiums to date this year, but usually goes well in Wales. Indeed he took his debut WRC win back in 2002 on the event and then won it again in 2003, 2004 and 2005. Last year he finished third and another podium this time out would be especially well timed following another trying season, in which he has only managed to score 42 points...<a href='http://my-news-blog.com/news/36081' rel="nofollow">http://my-news-blog.com/</a> Subaru’s Petter Solberg believes that unsettled weather conditions could help him and the Banbury based outfit to get a good result on the season ending, Rally GB.

But it is an indication that people think video advertising is going to grow, and that I believe. It's the "how much" that I question. Woody, what if the ads were relevant to you? Would you block them? The ads that I hate are the ones that are annoying and totally irrelevant to me. But advertising itself is not bad, and the more relevant the ads become, the more likely they are to work. Rich media advertising gives the ad agencies a lot more creativity to make the ads relevant.

That segment hit the wall even before the .com bust. I'm always skeptical of ever upward growth figures. Look at the numbers, year-over-year growth of over 50% for 9 years. Credible? The concept of the internet, even video over the internet, being a new-muedium to be expolited is out of date. While I'd expect massive increases in video advertising in the next 2-3 years (mostly due to nbc, etc delivering prime time content on the web), the growth figures quoted are simply unsustainable.
