Google Improves AdSense Competitive Ad Filter | jatiN mahindrA doT coM

In August, Google announced that it was upgrading its category filtering feature for AdSense, and extending the feature into more countries (like the US and the UK). Today, Google announced that they have added two additional improvements to the Competitive Ad Filter.

These improvements would be faster filtering and increased filter size.

“In the past, the Competitive Ad Filter sometimes took up to several hours to block URLs you’d entered,” says Arlene Lee of Google’s Inside AdSense Team. “Knowing you’ve wanted a faster filtering system, we’re excited to let you know that URLs added to your Competitive Ad Filter are now usually blocked within 30 minutes. We hope that this will help you quickly make changes to maintain a positive user experience on your sites.”

Google Wave To Splash Down This Fall | jatiN mahindrA doT coM

There’s fresh word this afternoon about when (and to whom) Google Wave will become available. Schools and businesses that use Google Apps appear to be first in a line that should start moving this fall.

A post on the Official Google Enterprise Blog announced, “While the product, platform and protocols are still being developed, we’re extending access to some of the highly collaborative people and communities we hope to benefit in the future – businesses and schools. In turn, we look forward to learning from these Google Apps users, so we can continue to tweak and develop the product as we gain insight from their experiences.”
