An idea a day:
45. Follow up to idea 42, making the screen-saver/ desktop wallpaper in all the computers in computer centres/ classrooms with sponsors information/ ads.
As computers are ubiquitous in campus now, and setting the whole things up dont require any penny, this may be a effective way for ads revenue.
The resentment may be less than idea42, as this is actually happening, for IBM computers, all the desktop and screen-saver should not without a IBM logo, it is also the case for DELL/HP...in every university.

Comments:

Hope you get well soon!

As you said, the desktop/screensaver things have already been there, then do you think the sale/ advertising effect exists for IBM/HP/DELL??

If the ultimate aim is to get sponsors from ad revenue, then what do you think about the ROI from ad companies?

Yaya, you are right, I can not provide any grounds to support the idea. I can not give you the return on invest that is on a comptitive edge to act as a ads platform.

But I am wondering, do this things exist already? Do schools/ any cyber cafe/ online game acardes do this things??

Just look at the active booming desktop widges market, you will know the desktop ad thing is still hit.

But only showing the ads on screen-saver/ desktop provide a v. different means to measure for a metric calculation.

How can the advertiser know if this can lead to deals?
