Google dump their top ads?
 

Can't see any ads except for the ones on the right hand side. Maybe they're just temporarily down...

i see plenty of them:glugglug

Depends on the keywords entered, I guess. The ads still show up on my end.

For what keywords? None are showing up for me on any competitive keywords and traffic is up quite a bit from google, which would lead me to beleive it's not just country specfic.

They discontinued their premium campaings as of Jan1. Now only adwords is available..top adwords spots on the right sometimes make it to top left.

Thanks Sloane. Do you have a link to a press release?

No link. just a phonecall to say my contract/campaign has been cut short :(
