advertising on them Internets there

Internet advertising. I'm of deeply mixed feelings about this.

On the one hand I'm a believer in the theory that we shouldn't have to advertise too intensively if our product is right. But at the same time it's obvious that a new business has to advertise. And the various venues certainly make it easy to do. Without any kind of "gatekeeping", three different large-traffic sites are now running our ads: Facebook, Yahoo! Japan, and Google Japan.

You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go.
