A week Of freedom reading!! 

 From google banned books.. :

To Kill a Mockingbird. Of Mice and Men. The Great Gatsby. 1984.  It’s hard to imagine a world without these extraordinary literary classics, but every year there are hundreds of attempts to remove great books from libraries and schools. In fact, according to the American Library Association, 42 of 100 books recognized by the Radcliffe Publishing Course as the best novels of the 20th century have been challenged or banned.

I can’t remeber when google released Related links to the public but I remeber the buzz in the forum saying “It doesn’t pay”..

http://www.google.com/relatedlinks/

From google:

Google Related Links use the power of Google to automatically bring fresh, dynamic and interesting content links to any website. Webmasters can place these units on their site to provide visitors with links to useful information related to the site’s content, including relevant videos, news, searches, and pages

Just done a quick search and came up with webmasterworld’s post about this back in April 2006

You can now login into your adwords account and try the mobile ads out..

From Google:

What do mobile ads look like?

Mobile ads contain two lines of text, with a limit of 12 or 18 characters per line, depending on the language in which you write your ad. Your Destination URL appears on a third line if you choose to enter one. If you select the option that allows customers to directly connect to your business phone, a Call link will be displayed next to your Destination URL.
