Google+1 Adsense - Your Thoughts???

[guest]

Hello,

In the next month, we'll introduce the +1 button and personal recommendations to display ads.

The +1 button will begin to appear on AdSense for Content and AdSense for Mobile Content display ad formats -- image, animated gif, and Flash. +1s will be one additional signal to help determine an ad's relevance and we'll continue to show the ads that will generate the most revenue for you.

We previously launched the +1 button on Google search and for publisher sites to make it easier for people to share and discover content across the web. Soon, your users will be able to endorse specific ads and make the ads more likely to appear to their social connections. We believe that these recommendations could help your readers notice ads on your site more, leading to higher returns for you over time.

If you prefer not to show the +1 buttons on display ads on your pages, you can opt out in your account. For more information please visit the Inside AdSense blog.

Sincerely,
The Google AdSense team

You can see what the ads will look like here: http://adsense.blogspot.com/2011/09/...-relevant.html

I'm sure you all got this email from Google - what are your thoughts on +1 adsense ads?

Are you going to disable them - keep them, do you think they'll help with your CTR, or lower it?

There's already a topic created here ---> Google +1 Coming to Adsense. What you think?

I'm really not sure, it all looks a little 'over engineered' to me, most people don't like ads so are they really going to start recommending them to friends...I don't know.

I am curious to see if most webmasters will be disabling this feature or not. It seems like a distraction to me. And I do not see how it would help them show better paying ads on a website any better than the statistics that they already have available.
