According to C|Net News.com it looks like Google may be moving into its first offline venture. If the rumor is true, Google could be expanding their AdWords program into printed publications.
Here is an example of what the printed ads look like in PC Magazine, and here is one from Maximum PC. Those are the only two examples I could find so far.
Like most people, I really don’t pay a lot of attention to ads in magazines, but I guess I’ll take a closer look the next few issues just to see if Google pops up in them. – Pardon the pun.
