Forbes Article

OK, first thing I noticed when I went to the site to read this article was that there was a page you had to pass before actually reading the article.  The page was essentially all advertisements but it made me think about ways this site makes money.  That was comment number 1, now on to the actual content of the article.  The article essentially just reiterated what Meg and Terry were saying for the past two weeks: as journalists we need to understand a whole lot more than we used to in order to succeed.  Something I really liked about this article was how it laid out a bunch of different kinds of advertisement for the reader to understand.  It made the whole idea of advertisements a lot easier to understand the different ways to advertise.  We have talked about some of these types of advertisement in class (e.g. native advertising) but it was nice to have a detailed description for all the different options offered to entrepreneurs.
