    why is that so strange though? I seen adsense advertise itself on YPN ads before.

    It's possible someone is using Adsense with an affiliate link as the actual webpage link.

    Maybe somebody created an ad campaign and instead of having the target url their website, it's an affiliate link.

    this seems to be highly unlikely case.

    Lol, but more likely that a corporation like Yahoo is using a competitors service? I suppose.

    since you insisted so much i did some research and came up with quite surprising results. so i decided to include this in my blog. yes ! yahoo indeed uses adsense to promote messenger. I have some pics to support my claim. check the rest of story in my blog and let me know what you think :cool:

    Interesting find, sorry if I came across as 'insisting'. :)

    One problem, cldnails said what you quoted in your blog, not the name you have listed. ;)

    I read that MSN IM and Yahoo! will work with each other in the coming years. The article didn't state when, just that they were working on it. No more issues with multiple accounts soon I hope.

    yes i also found similar article on google news couple of days back. Its only going to increase the competition and the end publishers would benefit from it.
