Apple’s iAds Bring Advertising to iPhone Applications

As heavily rumored, Apple’s Steve Jobs just announced an advertising platform for iPhone applications.

Apple plans to host and sell the ads, and will give the developer 60% of the collected revenues.

The ads will be interactive, take advantage of video, and allow developers to create free apps and monetize them with the ads.
