Italicized AdSense titles????

[KLB]

Is anyone else seeing italicized titles in SOME AdSense ads? I was cross checking my site on different browsers and in Opera I noticed one AdSense block had italicized AdSense ad titles while the other two blocks did not (see screen capture).

Also I've been noticing sporadic "wingding" like icons next to some of my AdSense ads in the past 24 hours. Is anybody else seeing these little things?

Of all the changes they keep making, I wish they would let me change the colors of the "Ads by Gooooogle" block without putting a border around rest of the ads.

I have not seen this personally, but I know they do lots of testing by tweaking small things like that on a small percentage of impressions. Usually they are altering the "Ads by Gooooogle" part though, I have not heard of them actually changing the ads themselves.

I haven't seen it but I can't say I'm surprised; Google constantly tweaks and tests.

I saw it once.... probably just another test to see if it'll pump up CTRs. I thought it was ugly though.

Yep, I've seen them, bold italics, and italics by itself.

I guess they might be mixing it up, reduce ad blindness?

I saw this yesterday on one of my websites.

...And the testing continues. Here's something I've never seen before.

I've seen that before, as well as a colored version of that image, and one where it used the image of the G that is their favicon in place of the word Google.
