Jim,

Don't you think it would be more effective to display a dhtml popup than to redirect the surfer?

I mean sure, greenie only sees .15%, but some people probably see 10% and that means they'd be sending 10% of their surfers to another site... now i'm not saying that it's bad to tell people they have zango, but the way zango works, a user only gets a pop every hour or two, so the odds of them popping a new browser on your page is actually very small if the surfer is navigating link lists and tgp's because they are likely hitting 10's or hundreds of domains.

I would think that a dhtml ad would be more effective because the user could close it if they wanted.. your method seems like (unless i'm misunderstanding it) that it redirects every zango surfer away from the site.

This could be done easily with some javascript.
