Basically it depends on the targeting of the ad. Ads will open in new tab/window so user will stay on the site. And the second thing is there could be also ads which are payed for just showing up.
New tab/window is not a good idea, this is usually blocked - even by default now.

There are no doubts. I definitely agree that the traffic or better, users are needed for monetization. But now I am concentrating 100% on the development. When it will be finished (I hope start of the october - version 2.0 final), I will start propagation (with minimal budget just to make some T-shirts, badges, link trading, stickers and other stuff). And than when the number of the users will grow (now about 300 but there was no propagation, yet - they mostly came from invitation from other users) than is the optimal time to make some money from it just for beginning but as I said I want to make the advertising really softly (no agressive and awfull ads) with my future internet ad system.

Well that is my point of view.

Guys, if you like the idea of GigaCast and want to support it just write a mail at jobs@thegigacast.com with some specs where are you from (country) and I can send you t-shirt, sticker or badges :).
