Google Cleans Up Search Results By Ditching Sidebar Ads

Mark Wilson writes: Google generates a huge amount of revenue through advertising but it's not afraid to try mixing things up a little. Ads in search results have long-been controversial, but the latest change is likely to go down well with many people -- the ads that currently appear in the right-hand sidebar of search results are to be dropped. The change means that ads will only be displayed above and below search results. There will be seven Google AdWords ads in total -- four above the search results and three below.
