No, I mean Adsense. Adwords is intent-driven search. Adsense is discovery. Pinterest is much more comparable to Adsense.
I thought AdWords was the interface for making ads for AdSense. The logo even says "Google AdWords." And the ads I made look a lot like AdSense.

#53I think Pinterest is basically all ads already. Now they will just get money for them.
Re: Pinterest to get ads
#54The idea is pretty simple. When you consume an ad network for your site you handle scenarios when there isn't an ad to display. The browser extension has a lengthy list of advertiser urls and cancels them before they are loaded.
So in other words f' pinterest ;)

#55Pinterest's users are mostly women. Women click on ads far more often than men do. Combine that with the added appeal of pictures and you realize that the efficiency of ads on Pinterest could dwarf anything offered by Adsense and the likes. Bottom line, for the next couple of years there are some serious bucks to be made from ads on Pinterest. After that, spam will take over.
They do? Women be shoppin'?

Is this actually true?

when you write Adsense, do you mean Adwords ?

AdWords is the overall interface. Adssense is the website-owner-focused product that lets people put ads on their website. AdSense is for all intents & purposes google's display network, but is definitely served up through Google's AdWords platform.
Re: Pinterest to get ads
#58Pinterest's monetization will do great. Seriously, Pinterest could and should IPO in coming years. I'm bullish on Pinterest not only because my wife and I use Pinterest for everything from planning our wedding to finding outfits and meals, but because I market on Pinterest for a few clients all day long. It consistently brings in more traffic than other sources when you do it right, even for clients that are ranked i…
Your first sentence is ambiguous. I'm still not entirely sure you mean it in the startup world usage of "killing it" - i.e. doing really well (though I think you do), or the more mainstream usage of "destroy it."
It still means "destroy it", but "it"="the competition/obstacles".

Premium accounts could work for Pinterest. I think ads will make them a lot more, their model is well suited towards ads. Not to say they couldn't do both.
Yes, I expect ads will make them more on average, but they could certainly make more from me (well... my household) if we could just pay them to remove the ads, and perhaps have some other premium features. My wife is a normal computer user. A savvy one, but still a normal one. She's a bit behind me on the curve of getting pissed off about ads, but not as far behind me as Pinterest et al might hope. If Pinterest fill…
Pinterest content is fairly similar to ads. I recall something where the founder described it as digital magazine clippings--I figure that actual magazine clippings were more than likely originally promoting a product.
The way I'm imagining it, the ads could fit in very well. You say you're already using it as your cookbook. If a chicken pays to promote recipes involving chicken, this hasn't really effected your usage in a negative way.
If the execution is good, I'm not sure where the objection is coming from. Of course, the execution could be bad; but you seem to be implying that ads would be very negative either way.
