This morning (at the ungodly hour of 3:01 a.m. ET), the YouTube team announced its list of the 10 most-watched video ads of 2011. I know, I know.

We all knew this would have to happen sooner or later.

Now, advertisers who were once shy about delivering ads to online video are interested, ...

It's like peanut butter and chocolate all over again. A new report from Google and Ipsos, who has got a creepy tagline "Nobody's Unpredictable," took a look at ad effectiveness in terms of ad recall and and brand metrics and found, once again, that TV and online video ads are very complementary.

If you read my previous article about Mixpo's new interactive video ads, called Frameworks (formerly Project Matisse I'm told), you know I had some questions I thought might need some expansion to get a better grip.
