Adsense unit on my site allows visitors to scroll through the ads within the ad, wtf?

    Does anyone know about this?

    I was browsing my forums and noticed one of my link unit ads had two arrows in the bottom left corner of my horizontal ad.

    << >>

    That's basically what it looked like. I clicked the arrow on the right and it turned the ad unit from displaying the normal ads to "Loading." I'm assuming it was going to show 3 more text ads from what there was before but my internet is acting up so I'm not sure if it's something with a new google feature that's not working correctly or just my net that was the cause of "loading" after clicking the arrow.

    I tried to go back but it was stuck on "loading" so I refreshed and now it's gone. Has this happened with anyone else?

    my site is @ www.btnhboard.com but I'm unable see these forward and back arrows apprear again.

    I really cant follow your question, you yourself are saying they are scrolling google ads and that is correct. and there more than dozen threads about this ads in this forum.

    This new feature in Google Adsense indicates that Google is offering an alternative for site visitors to browse more ads if you want more than from what it is being displayed.

    Yes, that's a relatively new feature from AdSense.
    Nothing major though, I didn't see any change in terms of revenue.

    I got such ads in my site too. But what i observed is, mostly they come, whnever im testing a new page with google ads in it. In main pages, where visitors comes, i never found such ads. May be they are coming, but i didnt see.
