Video: Texas Tribune’s Evan Smith: ‘I Was A Hater, Then I Became A Zealot’

One of the side benefits of coming to Austin for South By Southwest Interactive: spending some time at the Texas Tribune, the non-profit news site launched last November to cover statewide politics, public policy and government. The enterprise started with venture capitalist John Thornton, who recruited Texas Monthly‘s Evan Smith as CEO and Editor in Chief.

    I tested www.narsinghmeedia.com and they seems to be average.It seems to be an ad network from India but I can also see international ads with avergae payout.

    Anybody tested out them?Kindly comment

    Strange enough, i found it pretty good dude. Temme what bad experience u had???

  • Tyroo user

    Sorry buddy,

    U seem to be the first one who has had a good experience with Tyroo. They suck big time and so has been the experience of all the other users I have had interaction with. Very shoddy.

    Guess you a little wrong here, Google might be the market leader but others are catching up pretty fast. Testimonial is Tyroo Media. I have tried Tyroo on my blog.it works pretty well and the technology is pretty cool. Way to go Tyroo:)
