Apple Releases 'iAd Gallery' App

Steve Jobs describes Apple’s theory in making apps; set a bar for developers to do better...

:eek:
 
If they had coupons with the ads that would be good. Otherwise, I'm not sure why I'd want to download this app. There isn't much interesting about little micro ad banners.
 
brilliant! i find myself "surfing" free apps to find certain iAds. I've always wanted a database of all of the iADs in one place to reference and inspire. I see 2 in the macrumors screen shot that I personally have worked on. Cool!

Probably, but as I am in the Marketing and Advertising business I will find this quite useful. Many of you are so quick to dismiss the usefulness of this App simply because you don't understand its true purpose.

Well, then I'm a complete moron.

Some people are actually interested in marketing, and would love to have a centralized place to view how large companies are advertising on one of the largest mobile spaces in the world.

By all means, go back to playing Doodle Jump.

gladly, be boring.

Those ads are not exactly the pinnacle of creativity

why does macrumors link to the appshopper description of the app instead of the actual apple link?

Seems like a useless middle step

Congratulations sir or ma'am, you are the one human being on the planet who can actually call this "brilliant" and have a use for it that is not completely retarded and/or make me wish a meteor would hit earth.

Thanks for the passing insult however I think I was pretty clear that your use for it was one I hadn't considered and also a rare case that made this app actually useful. I apologize for recognizing your rare and interesting situation.

I've often wondered about all of the great ads that I might be missing. Some, I don't care about, but others are very interactive and stuff that I buy or would buy. These interactive experiences help make a product just a little more real, accessible and engaging. If you show me why I would want something, it's a lot more effective than just a static graphic getting in my way.

Ads can be fun --> SUPER BOWL, anyone? So with the "Loved" save feature, it'll be great when you want to show a friend how great something was or if you need to refer to it when trying to make a buying decision.

The naysayers here --> boring. This is cool. If you don't like, don't waste the bits on your iPhone. The rest of us will enjoy the app.

I'll be downloading this. Thanks, Apple!

apart from a man eat his own head iv seen everything!!
 
lol. But when is the Apple Store app going to be released in Canada? Is it available anywhere outside the USA yet?
 
hahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.........

Whoever spends their time looking at adverts is a lost cause and has no life. Seriously I think this is the most ridiculous thing apple has come up with.

Register on MacRumors! This sidebar will go away, and you'll see fewer ads.
