Today’s tshirt is courtesy of Etology.com. Yeah, I had never heard of them either until now. But according to their site, they’ve been around about three years - that’s a long time in internet years…

In June 2005, Etology saw the need to empower Website owners by allowing them to sell their AdSpace directly to Advertisers. Advertisers can place ads directly on sites. Etology serves text ads and banner ads in all types of standard ad units, including banners, skyscrapers and inline ads.

I signed up for an Etology account myself to test it out.  They haven’t approved my website yet for my ads to be live on this site (I put the code in the sidebar).  As for buying ads myself, I didn’t see any websites that I really wanted to advertise on (either non-relevant sites or the buying price was too high for my budget).  But they do offer an affiliate program (aka broker) and pay out 20%.

The concept reminds me a lot of AdJungle.com that has been around since 1999 (ancient, I know).  Hey Brad Waller, got a tshirt (or Hawaiian shirt) for me to wear?
