Happy Holidays from Google Team [Adsense]

I am quite sure i am not the only one who received this email, a happy holidays greeting and a link to a page where my gift is there
I went to that link and saw a nice one page wishing me happy holidays and also an announcement:

The following is the list of beneficiaries:

Atleast i am happy that i have been earning decently in adsense and though indirectly is able to help a million others through charity, which is the best holiday gift.
Thanks Google and Adsense

 

Congratulations and happy Christmas - I hope to get any gift from Google but i don't think so ,,,,,,

 

I have not received this mail so far. But then I have just started 2-3 weeks ago with Adsense. I think that email was sent to people who earn alot.

 

got the email too and honestly i'm disappointed because i'm pretty sure google could afford to give BOTH charities and affiliates a gift this year.

 

LOL. Dont be too greedy Soamelt. I really appreciate the efforts by google to help the needed. A big applause to google.

 

but still google is a corporate, they can afford to pay without the help of publishers... but still i agree with them..

 

i think this is a nice step taken by google..

 

while i applaud the charitable donation, and those organizations can certainly use the money this year, Google made $1.65 billion in PROFITS in the 3rd quarter alone, of which 30% came from ads on other publishers’ sites.

just glad i could help. not expecting anything but a small token gift would be appreciated.

 

I also got this email yesterday I think this is a fantastic idea.

 

i received the email today....but theres no quote about charity or else..

 

anyway it is forced we cannot do anything but watch...
