    Adsense is updating its code...
    Once again without telling us what they're going to do ! :mad:

    But what worse, now adsense link units are showing up on most of my websites, i just have an inputbox :eek:

    And when they are showing, instead of 5 unit link like in the past i only have one or two, not really relevant besides

    Google what the f**k are you doing!!!
    Damned adsense! If there was a real reliable competiter i would switch right away. Well i keep praying for one, maybe one day, i'll have my revenge over mighty google :mad: (what a nice day it would be:rolleyes:)

    Yeah and now the text ads really look like ads already, it's hard to blend it already.

    Yes, the arrows allow you to scroll to new ads, I guess, I haven't tested them for fear of clicking my own ads.

    Text link blocks are not providing ads, just a search box, but I am sure that must be temporary.

    I hope so too! (and you guess right: it does scroll to new ads.)

    Ijust checked my adsense dashboard, there is some change too:
    like manage your ads, unfortunately it's not yet working
    i wanted to replace my link units blocks with their new shit codes but all I've got is a blank page! :mad:

    Google when are you going to be a mature company???
    I mean, you don't roll out a broken product like this out of the blue, can't you perfect it a little bit more before!

    Link unit are more than 60% of my income, they are performing extremely well on my sites. So right now Google is not my best friend :mad:


    But something maybe good though: youtube ads are now accessible worldwide.:confused:

    Adsense is done. at least for me. currently getting rid of their ads.
    i wont deal with a 70% revenue loss any longer and it became a waste of space.

    I wont wait until "maybe some advertisers bid higher for clicks in the future"
    The ad area change is one thing i understand from Googles viewpoint and in the end it might turn out good for the internet itself, BUT who explains the horrible CPC i have since the change?
    from USD0,30 clicks to 0,02 or 0,01. Have i been smartpriced at the same time the ad area change occured? i dunno..

    Anyway, i went off topic. I realized that they changed something yesterday so i tried to set up an ad and realized the code is completely different now.
    It HAS to be temporary/testing otherwise Google made a big mistake by not telling us publishers about it.
    Even if you test something, i think it should be announced. Especially if your brand is called "Google".

    We want to have a real alternative: almighty google is pissing me off a little bit today...
    And actually outside the USA, no real alternative as Yahoo is not servicing abroad.
    Doubleclik is for the happy few and under siege by Google: Maybe the European Union will break any buying attempt! :D

    It seems Google stop their stupid joke for now: link units are showing up again, i feel better :eek:
    But still wary... I'm quite sure they're going to mess it again. :(
