Just discovered that AIM occasionally displays Google AdSense ads in the IM above the fold. See the screenshot below:

Adsense now offers round cornered ad formats
I was just browsing through JenSense.com (which btw, is a great resource for serious Adsensers) and noticed some new changes Google is making to Adsense formats – round corner ad formats.

A reminder of the quality of your pages
You can see I haven’t come up with a dime of posts here at ADD since several weeks ago, sorry about that. I was constantly haunted by SE problems that many of my pages from another site were left to rot in Google’s supplemental index.

This has proven itself so WRONG and DETRIMENTAL that almost certainly WILL jeopardize the SERP of your site. Don’t you ever try to do that from my case. Just a test that has something to tell so both of us benefit.
