Google Releases Ad Manager
I just heard about this today and it sounds like it would be a great resource. I can see this as a nice solution for those of you running classified sites and want to start running banner ads. I would also like to point out that it says, “Directly-sold”. Meaning you would be responsible for the billing on your end.
