adsense ads in approved email newsletters

Content network expands to email
The Google Network already includes such sites as USATODAY.com and over 50% of the Media Metrix Top 100 that show advertising—sites which reach over 80% of U.S. Internet users. And now, we're adding more ways for you to reach prospects interested in your products or services: email and newsletter ad placements. Just as when your ads are shown alongside Google search results, your contextually-targeted ads will now show alongside approved newsletter and email content, such as iVillage newsletters and our new Gmail.

This is nice, because email reaches to more targetted audiance

 

You should have used the [ quote ] tags instead of code tags, it would be easier to read.

 

Yeah but that is an adwords announcement for advertisers. Has nothing to do with ad-publishers.

I would be very suprised if they allowed regular publishers to include ads in e-mail and newsletters.

 

They have been beta testing AdSense in newsletters for quite some time now, although there not many who are included in the beta and the ones I know of have extremely large subscriber numbers. The ads are basically image maps that AdSense generates specifically for each newsletter - they do not use javascript for it, since most email programs do not execute javascript.

 

Yea I thought about that with emails anyhow. Most email doesnt automatically parse HTML code let alone jscript. So you'd need to add headers in the mail assuming it wasn't a email client, and just a newsletter script. And even that wouldn't show the ads, just html. It's sort of pointless to try putting adsense code in emails now, until they release that.
