Is the viewable impression going nowhere fast? A full two years after
the Interactive Advertising Bureau, Association of National Advertisers
and the 4A's launched Making Measurement Make Sense (3MS),
a cross-industry effort to improve Web ad metrics, and a year after
viewability took center stage at the IAB’s annual meeting, the movement
seems to be running in place. Instead of rallying around a new ad
currency, questions continue to arise over the most practical of issues,
such as how to measure, implement and enforce viewable impressions—and
whether the whole conversation is even worthwhile.
