No. <br /><br />Going back many years there was research that conclusively showed that ads put sideways in print media annoyed the reader because they had to turn their paper or magazine around to read it. It also showed that it generated negative feelings towards the advertiser.<br /><br />Did they learn? No, we still see agencies thinking it's clever to design ads to be placed sideways.Seabeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06939892206726271433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7655889105820772060.post-51713173489421298062010-03-21T07:27:18.814+03:002010-03-21T07:27:18.814+03:00I too have noticed this annoying habit of GN disru...I too have noticed this annoying habit of GN disrupting my morning read.
