The advertisement has finally finished. Now that this has happened, the rest of the content on the page can appear and any javascript DOMContentLoaded and then window load events can run.

Which one to choose first… this will be hard. :)
BTW, imagine this: you decide to pick up a parcel after work. You walk in the post office, take a silly Q-matic ticket, wait for 40 minutes and get your goodies. Next you walk home only to discover another frickin’ advice note in your letter box. Another hour wasted.
THIS is what happens when you decide to use paper and ink instead of computers. As someone said, “snail mail doesn’t scale”.
Ask YC: I just quit Microsoft to work on this product full-time. What's your brutal feedback?
"... I just quit Microsoft to work on this product full-time. What's your brutal feedback? ..."
Show through demonstration. Well thought out, flawlessly executed in an area that will no doubt have the potential to make bucket loads of cash.
But there are a few problems I can think of. The first is the market for adverts is dominated by a giant. But where there is competition there is potential for success. The other problem is images + javascript can be blocked through code [0] and by humans. [1] Those clever lads at google get around this using text. Text fools code blocking and to some extent humans. So the technique you use will be less effective than googles technology. What other technology is behind the advert engine. How for instance does it target individuals?
Q What do we really need?
Maybe it's a little bit idealistic but for me I just want to make things that users want [2] and try to make their day a little easier and helping them instead of bombarding them. Reducing the amount of useless information and noise. Linda Stone poses the question(s), *"what do we really need, and what do we need to pay attention to"*. [3] And your system is something I think does not really benefit the consumers full stop. Microsoft thinking at it's best.
Q What do we need to pay attention to?
I'm sure advertising will be a hit for creators, synthesisers. But is this the right question?

This is Andrew Dupont, who is an amazing coder of the Javascript variety. He's the main contributer for Prototype, which most of you won't know, runs your websites. He's in town from Austin for SproutCore madness. He quite possibly is cooler than you. :)

Playing around with basic animation using the GreenSock javascript engine. When I programmed in AS3 back in the day I used GreenSock. I am VERY impressed with that this javascript animation engine can do... I'm ready to start playing around with more complex tests now.
