New Google Adwords Feature: Google Blimps

by Adam Killam on April 1, 2011

As of today, Google has made a new feature available to Google Adwords account owners called Google Blimps.

The new service allows advertisers to publish text messages on blimps that will circle major events such as the super bowl.

If you have an Adwords account, you should see a notice like this one:

Google-Blimps-1

If you follow the link, you’ll be taken to the following page where you can sign up for Blimps:

Google Blimps

And if you sign up, you get presented with a screen that says:

Google-fools

It’s been a few minutes since I signed up and still no blimp in site flying over Vancouver like I requested. Perhaps there’s a time delay?
