The future of advertising...online forums?

We certainly saw this coming or as far as I was concerned, it's been happening. As technology continues to advance, we slowly move away from reading newspapers in print and watching tv. Yes, we love to read our books on the Kindle, get our news sent via text message to our phones and catch back episodes of Glee on Hulu. So where does this leave space for advertising to get their ideas across to the consumers? They're going to go where we are, online forums. Honestly, aren't we sick of watching bad commercials on tv and sit there wondering what they're selling? Even better than producing commercials for you to decide whether or not you want to watch, you can be part of an online forum.

Advertisers let you know what and how they want to sell their products or services and consumers can let them know what you think. This is the perfect solution for advertisers and consumers being that it's cost efficient as well as time efficient. Advertisers don't have to waste time on commercials and ads that don't really reach the consumers. Online forums directly reaches their target audience while getting back a straightforward and fast response. Everybody can get what they want to some extent. We might actually not mind advertisements in the near future.
