The Ford ad on Yahoo can't be a shoshkele like what I saw in the ad 
portfolio link from the other day.

The shoshkele link originally posted went to an agency that had their 
hyper-ad jumping all over the content's main page (well, the Nike ad on the 
football page was kind of neat with a shark zig-zagging across the page 
before settling into the Nike logo on the right).

The Ford ad is animated but contained within a defined space. I'm pretty 
sure it was not a shoshkele.

The shoshkeles that I viewed yesterday had their client's logo 
super-imposed and obscuring the content underneath -- like a flash movie 
suddenly plopped all over the place  so I couldn't go to any links until it 
was done playing.

And, yes, if they were actually flapping all over a page obscuring my 
navigation, I just wouldn't go there, that's easy.

And I love the LCD posted a bit ago -- true, so sadly, very true,
