Looks like good news.

When Zango co-founders Keith Smith and Daniel Todd both filed Chapter 11 petitions to U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Seattle on Jan. 28, the handwriting was on the wall ? the adware company was close to death.

Good riddance. I'll take even a small victory, and appreciate it for what it is even if it barely matters.

I got a good feeling that in the next few years a lot of things, scheme and sites, etc. That would work in a booming economy will flounder in a tough one. Zango seems to have been a flawed model.

Internet advertising might be another one of them.

It's no good having millions of people looking at your advert unless they buy the product, even Coca Cola need to sell the drinks to afford "branding".

Maybe a lesson to others that hijacking the surfer is not the road to riches.
