    Hey guys,

    As you know I own a gadget blog. I'm finally being considered by PriceGrabber (pricegrabber.com) to use their comparison tool. Obviously this would aid visitors with more information on where to buy cool gadgets being discussed.

    Now, if I place that tool on my site am I violating Adsense's TOS?

    I want to know because I obviously don't want to do anything stupid, but at the same time will be a tough decision if it is agains the TOS.

    Few questions you want to ask first:
    Do you get money from pricegrabber to show these items?
    If you are getting money is pricegrabber contextual? Meaning it atomatically determines, using the text, on your page what item to display?

    If it is not contextual or if you don't even get cash from it then using other peoples content is OK as long as you have permission from the "OTHER PEOPLE" to use their content.

    I know that I will get paid a percentage of clicks. I don't know if its contextual or if it's like amazon where I have to kinda set up the code.

    I fired an e-mail off to Google.

    I was hoping someone had used them before.
