We've spoken to some of the people responsible for the creation of these ads, and so, in honor of the anniversary, I have re-edited their interviews into an oral history that tells the whole story. But in case you think you've heard all this before, please note that there are segments from 4 entirely <strong>new</strong> interviews that you have NOT heard before. So, if you want to hear the whole story comprehensively, download and listen!</p><p><a href=\"http://www.internethistorypodcast.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/first-ever-banner-ad.gif\" target=\"_blank\">THE FIRST BANNER AD</a></p><p>Please note: The post on the website for this episode has all the ads and graphics we mention throughout the podcast, so please check that out to see the full picture.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>","author_name":"Brian McCullough"}
