BLABBERMOUTH.NET DEBUTS WEIRD NEW ADVERTISEMENT SYSTEM

1

Metal news mainstay Blabbermouth.net has debuted a weird new advertising system. The new system seems to automatically identify keywords (which advertisers have presumably paid for) and double-underlines them in green. When the user hovers their cursor over the green keyword, a small bubble “Vibrant Ad” window pops up above it listing relevant links. See the screen cap below from when I hovered over the word “magazine.”

Slight annoyance aside, I suppose that anything that supports Blabbermouth is probably a good thing in the end. My only question: why doesn’t “Rock Hard” display links for Viagra?
