Google Base now live
Well, Google's classified ads service, Google Base is now live. Although it's not really related to AdSense, publishers should check it out. It's wise to keep abreast with what Google's doing.
Out of curiosity, I added a listing for my AdSense book just to see what using Google Base was like. Interesting experience, very similar to creating advertisements with AdWords. However, when I attempted to enter the word “ISBN” as an attribute it complained about excessive capitalization — even though that's the standard industry abbreviation to identify books. The funny thing, it was even listed in the dropdown list of suggestions that Google provided.
More on this later as I play around with it. Again, cool stuff from Google.
