adbrite & adsense was okayed to run on the same page, but adbrite has introduced new "Inline Ads" which they have discribed as "Inline ads match relevant keywords from AdBrite's network of publishers to AdBrite's network of advertisers. Keywords are double underlined and ads appear only when the user's cursor rolls over the targeted keyword." Just wondering if we can use them as they seem pretty contexual.
I am not asking about normal adbrite ads, there is no question of inline ads looking like adsense because adsense does NOT have inline ads. What are Inline ads? Inline ads are text ads that appear only when your user hovers over selected keywords that are double-underlined on your site. No HTML formatting is necessary to start showing inline ads on your zone(s), just pop in our code and you're done. To see how inline ads work, click here. I am unsure whether they are contexual in nature and hence might be against the TOS of adsense. A maximum of 8 words per page and no more than 1.6% of eligible text will be highlighted. Inline ads currently only show when a user is using Internet Explorer. http://help.adbrite.com/faq/index.php?sid=201246&lang=en&action=artikel&cat=45&id=157&artlang=en
Its always best to send an email to Google asking them about any doubts which might result in a ban. The Adsense support team is very co-operative.
Yes, AdBrite's inline ads are not a problem at all. With the latest TOS change, Google doesn't mind you having contextual ads on the same page, they just have to be distinguishable from your Google ads. Obvioulsy the inline ads look completely different from anything Google has, so it's no problems.

Google support often said it's not allowed with adbrite on the same page. I think it's maybe because of the ad format similarity between the two. So giving a different look to either adsense or adbrite might work. But just remember to drop google support an email to check!
If this is the case and google team is really, supportive it always better to clear the doubts for the 100% satisfaction, from preventing oneself from the possible ban.
Its true alright. I had about three emails exchanged about my doubts! Their support team is the best I've seen in some time.
we can do but the term is that they should not look like google as many said in this discussion above. So we can put contextual ads that don't look like google so inline ads never look like any ads of google so we can use with google
