Online advertising company Kanoodle has signed a deal to provide targeted ads on Microsoft's MSN Spaces blogging service, the Amherst company said Monday.

The agreement allows the more than 10 million MSN Spaces users to post ads from Kanoodle on their space.

The blogger will get a portion of the revenue generated by the "sponsored links" placed on their pages through the Kanoodle program.

"This is an opportunity for our advertisers to reach customers in new places," said Lance Podell, Kanoodle's chief executive. "We are very focused on building out a high-quality network of sites for our clients' ads to run on."
