Did you know that William Shakespeare invented the word advertising ? Google AdSense can thank William Shakespeare for his clever word. Here is the quote from Measure for Measure, the play written by playwright William Shakespeare, in which the word advertising appears: VINCENTIO  Come hither, Isabel. Your friar is now your prince: as I was then Advertising and holy to your business, Not changing heart with habit, I am still Attorney'd at your service. -Measure for Measure, Act 5, Scene 1, Line 410 Yes, William Shakespeare wrote ideal content for advertisers when he combined the ideas of advertising, holiness and business. What does holiness have to do with advertising and business? If products benefit the lives of various individuals, then there is a certain amount of holiness involved, and advertisers help to make people aware that these beneficial products exist.
