The website is a big German tech news site, the screenshot shows an article about the <a href="http://i.gizmodo.com/5130702/1tb-seagate-barracudas-collapsing-a-gogo-users-say">recent Seagate hard drive firmware problems</a> (where lots of drives just stopped working and firmware upgrades were required to fix it). Sort of funny to see a Seagate ad saying "discover the possibilities" on that article's page :)</p> Sat, 31 Jan 2009 23:43:00 +0100 Uwe Hermann comment 64532 at http://www.hermann-uwe.de http://www.hermann-uwe.de/blog/worst-ad-placement-award-2009#comment-64508 <p>Mind adding a translation for non-German speakers? I can only tell that a Seagate ad appears over what looks like a Seagate-related forum. I'd guess that the forum mentions bad things about Seagate drives?</p> Sat, 31 Jan 2009 21:18:26 +0100 Anonymous comment 64508 at http://www.hermann-uwe.de http://www.hermann-uwe.de/blog/worst-ad-placement-award-2009 <p>...goes to: <a href="http://www.heise.de/resale/o/foren/S-Vier-Festplattenbaureihen-von-Seagate-vom-Ausfall-bedroht-Update/forum-150608/list/">Seagate and/or heise.de</a> (translation <a href="http://www.hermann-uwe.de/blog/worst-ad-placement-award-2009#comment-64532">here</a>).</p> <p><a href="http://wp1029610.wp050.webpack.hosteurope.de/photoblog/interesting-seagate-ad-placement"><img src="http://wp1029610.wp050.webpack.hosteurope.de/files/images/heise_de_seagate_ad_placement.preview.jpg" width="640" height="393" align="center" hspace="5" alt="Interesting Seagate ad placement" /></a></p> http://www.hermann-uwe.de/blog/worst-ad-placement-award-2009#comments ad placement advertisement banner blog bug disk drive firmware funny hard disk hard drive heise seagate stupidity Sat, 31 Jan 2009 19:04:07 +0100 Uwe Hermann 1437 at http://www.hermann-uwe.de
