I don't know about anyone else, but something is very fishy about Google's earning reports. Many people have reported a massive drop in adsense earnings, which should reflect in their stock price... I would think.

But, to be fair, the adsense disaster really didn't start until March so it might not be noticable until Q2.

I wonder if it is possible that Google could have stolen some of our money to inflate their numbers?

I just don't trust those guys at all anymore...

Looking at their financial statement:

Google Investor Relations

The data to pay attention to there is the "As % of revenues" You'll see that AdSense revenues have been steadily declining since about 2004.

That does not mean that they are making less money, it just means that growth is slowing. Growth is still growth, however.

Also remember that the blog + forum ramblings of people noticing their adsense is down probably accounts for about 1/10 of 1% of AdSense publishers.

I gotta disagree with you there.... adsense revenue from publishers is a pretty big chunk of their income... and it's down all over the place. But, we'll see what happens next quarter. :D

google is evil
 
I wouldn't be surprised if they are squeezing the margins on publishers. As long as they have the biggest contextual ad platform, they can squeeze as much as they need out of it. There's plenty of room for them to do so before two-bit competitors like AdBrite are an alternative for most webmasters.

This might be a big reason for the gap between the earning reports and the adsense earnings. Basically the story is saying that the reason google growth came in stronger than expected was because of the sinking dollar and overseas ad spending. Bloomberg.com: U.S.
 
The Goolger is seeing a $90 increase on their stock today (in one day).

Our adsense is increasing too.
