Announcing AdCatalog v1 for iOS

Permalink | Shortlink | Comments (0) | TrackbackFiled in Google Blog NewsTags:

We’re very pleased to announce the release of AdCatalog v1 for the iOS platform. AdCatalog is a sample project that demonstrates how to incorporate banner and interstitial ad units into your application. In particular, AdCatalog showcases implementations for two standard banner ad sizes—320×50 and 300×250—and several use cases for interstitial ad units: basic, app launch splash screen, in-between game levels, and before playing a stored video.

AdCatalog can be downloaded as a zip from our google-mobile-dev project. Additionally, feel free to clone the repository or examine the source from the checkout page. In version 2, we’ll be looking to add even more advanced layout options to our banner scenario, so be sure to stay tuned. As usual, if you have any questions, comments, concerns, or feature requests, we appreciate hearing the feedback on our developer forum.

By Scott Knaster, Google Code Blog Editor

Everybody likes a faster web, and that theme has been evident this week here on Google Code Blog. On Monday, Yuchung Cheng wrote about Google’s research into making TCP faster through various proposals and experiments. Yesterday, Roberto Peon and Will Chan blogged about SPDY (pronounced speedy), Google’s protocol for speeding up the web’s application layer historically handled by HTTP. In related news this week, the chairman of the HTTPbis Working Group announced support for SPDY in a public post.

At Google, these projects are part of our Make the Web Faster initiative, although TCP improvements and SPDY are efforts of the whole community. Even if you’re not working on TCP or SPDY, you can find lots of useful resources at our Make the Web Faster site. For example, there are articles on compression, caching, metrics, and more, a set of tools for measuring and optimizing pages,

As announced in October, we will sunsetting all versions of the AdWords API prior to v201109 on February 29, 2012. To help you prepare to migrate to v201109, we’ve created a checklist that covers all of the required changes:

Required Changes:

  • Migrate all API calls to use v201109 services
  • Migrate all API calls to use clientCustomerId (instead of clientEmail) to identify an account as the target of an operation (Blog post)
  • Migrate campaign geo target creation and identification to use the new location criterion object (available through the CampaignCriterionService and the LocationCriterionService)
  • Migrate all other campaign targets (except ad scheduling) from the CampaignTargetService to CampaignCriterionService using the appropriate criterion objects defined within that service*
  • Migrate cross client reporting to v201109 AdHoc (single account) reports (Blog post)
  • Provide developerToken as HTTP header in AdHoc report requests
  • The last few API releases have seen various services migrate to

Reigniting the global economy

In Davos, leaders are attempting to find ways to restart the sputtering global economy. Two new studies released today at the World Economic Forum offer an answer: open up an Internet browser on our laptop, mobile phone or tablet and encourage the Internet.

The Boston Consulting group’s “Digital Manifesto” predicts that the value of the Internet economy in of the world’s top 20 economies will boom to $4.2 trillion in 2016—nearly double 2010’s number. One of the biggest drivers will be the huge increase in the number of people accessing the web. In four years, the report predicts three billion people will be using the internet, or nearly 50% of the world’s population.

The Internet does not just benefit the developed world, either. It contributes an average of 1.9 percent of GDP across 30 countries in the developing world and generated 1.9 million jobs alone in six countries: Hungary, Malaysia, Mexico, Taiwan, Turkey, and Vietnam, according to the new McKinsey Co. report, also
