Doug Stevenson, Chief Executive Officer of Vibrant Media, I hearby challenge you to a debate at AdTech in New York City on November 8th or 9th.

The debate would seek to answer the question if we, as an industry, should adopt Vibrant Media’s concepts for putting advertising links within the content area of websites and blogs.

A neutral party would moderate and the audience would be composed of publishers, advertisers, journalists and technologists in the industry.

At the end of the debate the audience would vote on whether they feel this technology should be adopted.

Mr. Stevenson, I eagerly await your response. I think you know where I stand on the issue.
