What's up with the NEW AdSense Format?
URL above description instead of below.

(I'd post images, but I don't have enough posts yet. Just look at your AdSense
ads, or go to DP and look in the AdSense section)

I've noticed this tonight, and last night, but only at night, and not during the
day. I think AdSense is trying to look for ways to get users to click the ads
more often, but nothing was posted on the AdSense blog.


UPDATE: I tested IE, but standard ads displayed.
In Google Chrome, the NEW format is displaying.
#adsense #description #format #url

      If I could post an image, I would.
      Here's what the Chrome format looks like:

      instead of the normal unit format:

        I just checked using chrome and they seem the same.
        There is a subtle difference. The title is melded with the
        description. In other words, the title is not just on top.

        Old example:

        TITLE
        description
        description
        url

        New example:

        TITLE-description...
        descripton cont.
        url

        If the title fits with part of the description on the first
        line, then they are both on the same line.

          I wonder - could adsense be having trouble with Chrome, in terms of
          formatting their ads?

            If google had trouble with adsense in it's own browser, that
            would be rich!

            But maybe you are on to something. Maybe chrome manipulates
            the adsense somehow. Both being google products, why not?

    Split testing their Ad Unit design perhaps?

    All looks normal for myself.

    Interesting. I wonder if Google are split testing a new ad unit. Although I think the number of Chrome users is still low so might take them a while to get any meaningful data.
