Omar Hamoui - "It's a Cross Platform World Again"

When I started AdMob in January 2006 I was trying to solve a problem I had as a developer: reaching consumers who were interested in my mobile website and finding a way to monetize my traffic. After realizing that no simple mobile advertising service existed to help me, I decided to focus on building the mobile ad platform that would become AdMob. I figured there were probably plenty of small mobile developers out there with great ideas who just needed a way to spread the word about their products, and to make some money once they gained usage. Turns out there were. Visit our blog to continue reading Omar’s post.
