    Introducing: MinnPost.com Real-Time Ads

    Enterprises that want to get the word out about their products, services or ideas are moving quickly to new media -- communicating through social networks like Twitter and by publishing their own blogs. 

    Of course, the challenge is getting more of the right people to see the messages. MinnPost.com is now offering an innovative solution to this problem:  MinnPost.com Real-Time Ads.

    For a modest weekly charge, you can show MinnPost’s readers the headlines or brief summaries of these messages you’re already creating, and watch them link to your full messages on your website.

    What does this look like?
    A live version of this new ad space (or, widget) appears in the left column on this page with clients who have commited to a beta test. Content is being updated to Real-Time Ads via an RSS feed from the content management system they use.

    Three ads are randomly picked from all ads published in the last three days and displayed when the widget loads. A reader can click on the "Show All Ads" button to see all items listed -- sorted by most recent first.

    The Real-Time Ads widget appears on all MinnPost.com pages in the left column under the Skyscraper banner position.
