i recently took the adsense survey and there was a very interesting question about how you feel about:

google syndicating my content to other sites' ad units, and i would get a share of the revenue. (paraphrased)

its an interesting idea, but i am uncertain how adsense publishers would feel about it.

right now, google sends traffic from search out to the content sites; with this idea, google would handle the mashing up of content and potentially send traffic from one adsense site directly to another and share any click revenues with the publisher and the content provider.

any thoughts on this?

Syndication just contributes to Web and search clutter. I'd hate to see Google encouraging or promoting it.

a good search engine should be able to filter out the syndications of some content and only point to the original creator. google does a pretty good job of this already, and if they were to handle the sydication, then certainly they could determine who the original creator actually was.

if this is handled properly, this could push relevant content to where the user is right now instead of the user having to repeatedly going back to the search results browsing for more information.
