So I wonder how much culd be attributed to change vs. a better format? Thanks for bringing the platform to our attention!

I bet when the people at WidgetBucks saw some details of AuctionAds they lost interest in buying it. I've got WidgetBucks running. The widget loads slow but it doesn't seem to affect the rest of the page load. CTR is very low, probably due to two things, the slow widget load and the lack of categories that fit my niche. CPC is very good. I'll probably run it in places that AdSense doesn't do well. Gives me another option to vary things. Shoemoney’s comments sound like sour grapes.

I really wish there were more variety in the products and categories. Seems like I'm only able to use the 'laptop' and 'game systems'.. which really don't fit in my niches, but I do get occassional clicks.

I've seen Shoemoney change the Azoogle ad colors on his sites, might be worth a shot to randomize AdSense formats (or WidgetBucks skins) on page loads. hmmmmmmm That is a very true point you brought up, change disrupts the ad blindness, but then the visitors gets use to it.
