I potentially did something awesome at work too.
In Wordpress (which counts as a platform for a rediculous amount of views, it's an uncountable number, but we're talking about the 100m+/month rate) you can embed content from popular platforms such as youtube by typing in something like "[embed]http://www.youtube.com/link/to/video[/embed]", which will embed the video, or that link could be for Flickr to embed a photo, or Amazon to embed a product.

I've managed to get our platform compatitble with the embedding (oEmbed), which means all those sports blogs that link to us can simply type in one of our urls and it'll embed one of our videos/photos/other-content... and therefore with that an advert. We're working on getting whitelisted as a default for Wordpress, so has a potential to serve up millions of adverts which was a lot of effort before.... it worked well when we got whitelisted on Facebook.
