Ads.com launches TV ads websites
Seattle based internet media company Ads.com, founded a couple of years ago, has launched what it claims is the first-ever comprehensive consumer website for accessing television commercials and related product/promotional information.
The Ads.com website enables consumers to find virtually any current network commercial by brand name, product name or by the particular television programme in which the commercial ran.
Once a commercial is located, consumers can play it and receive detailed product information. Besides this advertisers will get valuable feedback, an official release informs. Ads.com captures consumer interest in commercials and connects consumers with the respective advertisers. At the same time consumer response data is generated that can help advertisers gauge the effectiveness of their ads the release states.
Advertisers can compare the effectiveness of their ads to other ads across the same product category or within the same television programme. Advertisers can also gather important detailed information about what interests consumers whether it is products or retail locations. Advertisers can also find out what types of consumers both demographically and attitudinally are interested in a particular commercial.
Ads.com also announced an agreement with the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (AFTRA), providing a means to legitimately run commercials on the Web. It also signed promotional agreements with both Microsoft Windows Media and ABC.com that will expose Ads.com to millions of consumers.

Babar Azam’s comical diving attempt goes viral as league introduces anti-dew measures.
MUMBAI: The WITT Summit just wrapped up with enough big ideas to fill a policy playbook because when India’s leaders, thinkers and icons gather under one roof, even the conversations hit sixes. The eighth edition of TV9 Network’s flagship What India Thinks Today (WITT) Summit 2026 concluded on Saturday after two days of dynamic discussions at its New Delhi venue. India’s largest multi-domain public policy and culture summit brought together political leaders, policymakers, sports icons, artists and technology innovators to examine the forces shaping contemporary India and its global standing.
Prime minister Narendra Modi delivered the keynote address on the theme “India and the World” for the third consecutive year. In a wide-ranging speech, he addressed the ongoing conflict in West Asia, calling for restraint and compassion while highlighting India’s continued development trajectory despite global turmoil.
The summit featured candid conversations with state leaders. Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy articulated a people-first governance model and contrasted it with other development approaches. Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav declared that Left-wing extremism had been effectively eliminated in his state and highlighted preparations for the upcoming Kumbh Mela. Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann defended his government’s record, citing the closure of 19 toll plazas and creation of the Sadak Suraksha Force. Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar expressed confidence in Congress prospects in Assam and addressed recent allegations against him.
On geopolitics and national security, Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia outlined India’s ambition to become a builder of trusted digital infrastructure for the world, citing the rapid 5G rollout and village-level 4G connectivity.
Cricket received significant attention. Former India captain Sourav Ganguly praised player freedom and trust as hallmarks of great leadership and named MS Dhoni as the greatest captain due to his World Cup successes. India women’s team bowling coach Aavishkar Salvi credited the BCCI and Women’s Premier League for building a pipeline of world-class talent behind the team’s recent ODI World Cup triumph.
The summit also hosted the inaugural AI² Awards 2026, celebrating the convergence of human creativity and machine intelligence in storytelling and content creation. Poet and kathavachak Kumar Vishwas delivered a nuanced take on India’s concept of Dharma and criticised the recent arrest of an 80-year-old Shankaracharya. Veteran lyricist Sameer Anjaan and storyteller Neelesh Misra reflected on changing music trends and artistic responsibility in the wake of a recent controversy involving Nora Fatehi.
In a country where conversations often run as deep as the Ganges, the WITT Summit proved once again that when leaders, thinkers and storytellers come together, the real winner is public discourse lively, layered and refreshingly unafraid to tackle the big questions shaping India’s tomorrow.
