I see this as a great thing. Google can only do this with their program (and yes its a marketing thing, but really ... what isn't?). Maybe Yahoo and MSN will join in. I for one would LOVE to see more students get into using PPC at the college level. There is no better way to learn. And the small businesses get a small boost. No one said they had to CONTINUE the campaign. But if it works, then they know that is does ... and they figured it out for free. Most of us got the same thing when we started, but it came in the form of $50 coupons ... but with no time or experience or help. </p> <p>I see this as a great opportunity. Wish I'd gotten it when I was in school. Great move by Google. </p> I’m going to disagree with you for the first time. I see this as a great thing.
