Just to clarify -- other contextual ads = not OK

Ads that look like textual ads but are not, exactly = OK?

Is that right?

They certainly wont allow a directly competing context-sensitive off-site served ad service.

As such I still have doubts about Amazon skyscrapers set to give keyword/s feed.

Text adverts are OK providing they look nothing like the Google one's, don't update from an external source and could not possibly be mistaken for Google's brand.

You also have to ask yourself just how many adverts you can cram on one page?

Thanks Pibs.

Google's ads are just text, though, and could easily look like other ads and vice versa...
