		Apple's Website Ad Placement - Why?
		2 points by cobookman on July 2, 2013 \| hide \| past \| favorite \| 3 comments
		Any web designer want to chime in on why apple placed ads across the entire width of the screen, outside of the menu bar container? Maybe its just me, but the styling doesn't seem to match Apple's streamlined minimalism.
