You've Got Ads: AOL Buys Third Screen Media

Analysts are already weighing in on the deal, which went down for an undisclosed sum.

“This deal brings mobile further into the mainstream advertising environment by allowing for integrated ad buys,” said Forrester Research principal analyst Charles Golvin.
