| Quantcast uses search to break down audience data By Emma Bazilian While digital campaigns can be targeted to consumers with uber-specific interests, television advertising, in comparison, can sometimes feel like a shot in the dark.

Who is this bunny that clucks like a chicken and lays eggs made of chocolate? Thankfully, an ad from Germany is about to demystify the legend for us.... Read more » |
