TextAds: The most sincere form of flattery.

Someone paid Google good money so that people searching for 'AOLiza' would see their ad for free chat bots.

I'm waiting with baited breath for the first TextAd marriage proposal. "Honey, can you look up 'peruvian lizards' in Google for me?"

For that matter, it might be interesting to place a TextAd correlated to your own name, something like: "Yo, I'm the best Kevin Fox. Dis those wannabes. I'm the one you're looking for." that is, unless you already have first billing.

Are you the first google hit for your name? Are you feeling lucky?
