Looks like there is a good bit more program information available than I saw with Yahoo. They also have a newbee service called Jumpstart. This was $299 and not promoted as well as the Yahoo service which cost less, so we skipped it. Both Yahoo and Google have voice over demos that you can watch to get an introduction.

On to the sign up process. This is interesting; I am a little surprised that I need to actually create my ad as the second step after selecting the target country and language. I am sure that I can change it later, so here is the first try without much thought:

Online Training
For small business. Initial month
free and no setup cost.

I know that it should be targeted much narrower, but that will work to start. I'll use the same keywords as with Yahoo to start with, knowing that these are also much too broad. Other parameters: $20/day budget and 25 cent maximum bid.

They will send email that I need for activation. Got the email immediately, and followed the link to verify and go on to payment. Now in my account, I edit a couple of things and ... it seems that the site has stopped working. Guess that I'll return later to pay for it - time to get back to programming tasks.
