Microsoft launched on Monday an effort that combines its various global ad products and services under one umbrella for advertisers.
With its new Digital Advertising Solutions, Microsoft will deliver companies' ads to Windows Live, Xbox Live, Office Online, Live Search and MSN users via computers, smart phones, handheld computers and Xbox game consoles.
"As today's consumers spend more and more time online across various digital devices like mobile phones and video games, advertisers are finding they can no longer reach their entire target audience by advertising on a single medium," Joanne Bradford, Microsoft's vice president of global sales, said in a statement.
How can MSN wooo anyone when they only turn away thier own customers. They recently announced they are shutting down thier chat servers, offering no refund on subscription. Some people subscribed to MSN's special service bundle for chat purposes only. Then with 1 month's notice cancel that service. Bad thinking MSN. How long will it take you to cancel out unsavoury ad banners. I can only hope Google comes out with a solution. Seems to me MSN is not a trusted company anymore just a cash cow slowly getting beaten down by companies such as Google that provide good service. I hope someone wakes MSN up!!

I hate MSN, and even Netscape, see how much crap is on that site netscape.net, no wonder they are less and less known these days, who has time to flip through crap.
