11. May 2008
YouTube has been gradually adding pop-up style advertisements in their videos for awhile, but this is the first case I’ve seen of MySpace doing it.

Funny, yet slightly disturbing. Update: Apparently the R-rated nature of the video above was deemed too raunchy for public consumption and has been taken down. (For those who did see it, however, the impression it left won’t soon be forgotten.)
