The goal of AdMob is to enable the mobile ecosystem. Our first step was to start serving ads on the mobile web. Then Apple launched their App Store and we were the first to start serving ads in apps. Soon after, the Android Marketplace came and again we were there with our Android SDK to do the same in Android apps. Today, we are excited to say that we have a new open source SDK to integrate AdMob ads in apps on Palm’s webOS platform.
Our beta AdMob Palm webOS SDK is available on Google Code. This is our first ad unit for Palm webOS apps and it supports CPC text ads and CPM banner ads. Our SDK itself is open source and licensed under the MIT license to align with Palm’s announced app distribution strategy.
We’ve seen how we can help app developers generate the revenue they need to keep on building compelling products and believe in the power of advertising in mobile applications across platforms. We are already working with several developers – including Delicious Morsel and Byte Sequencing – to incorporate AdMob’s new Palm ad unit into their applications.
Palm announced that their smartphone sales rose 134% to 823,000 units during the latest quarter on the back of the new Pre.
