    I think Google is a bit scared too Internet Advertising just does not work well.

Well, Google at least has the advantage that people go there to look for things. Sometimes these things can be bought. I never go to Facebook to look for something that can be bought.

You know, the thought just came to my mind: Women's magazines are about 90% ads, but the ads are pretty. I wonder if you could make a site that was 90% pretty ads. Hell, make it 100% ads...

You are right. It is mostly eye-candy. But I don't think people care if the images are commercial or not. In that sense, I think Pinterest might be missing out.
