Ok well PPC (pay-per click) advertising is like the buzz in internet marketing right now and well it looks like Microsoft is joining the bandwagon to compete with Google Adwords and Yahoo Publisher Network.

Microsoft is offering $200 in free advertising, although it costs $5 to sign-up and an additional $5 dollars for each month used. Oh and it's exclusive to US residents only. I mean wtf?

I wonder when 24.com will start a South African PPC advertising scheme. I'd love to start one, but sadly I don't have enough money lying around for servers and all the rest.
