Is There A Major Flaw In The New Google Video AdSense Ads?
I have not read anything about this yet.
The New Google Video AdSense Ads Do Not Seem To Show With Firefox!
For the first time in months, I have an AdSense ad running on a recent post on this blog. One of the new Google video ads to be precise. It does not show on my computers using Firefox. It only shows using Internet Explorer. Same computers, just different browsers. This site looks terrible in IE too.
Maybe you can see the video ad in Firefox.
I cannot. It shows up just fine in IE. I hope I am wrong.
*Don't bother looking, I've removed the ad now.*
This would be a real screw-up for Google if I am right.
What kind of idiot would make an ad that would not be visible on a browser they promote. I would think that is something they would have made sure worked.
Here is the announcement for the AdSense video ad at Inside AdSense.
We're excited about the launch of video units — a new way to enrich your site with quality, relevant video content in an embedded, customizable player. Simply embed a snippet of code and have relevant YouTube partner content streamed to your site. You can choose categories of video to target to your site, select content from individual YouTube partners, or have video automatically targeted to your site content. Companion and text overlay ads are relevant and non-intrusive. To further blend the YouTube player into your site, you can also customize the color scheme and layout as well as choose from three different player sizes.

Am I wrong about the AdSense video ads and Firefox?
Can you find the AdSense video ad using Firefox? Can you find it in Internet Explorer? It is in a very recent post.
Let me know what you see and think.

Hello There!
You might be interested for a Customized Wordpress Theme
or a Blog ReDesign.

I work with my clients closely. I start with psd designs,
and present it. From there, changes are made to the
design until it suits the clients taste.
Then I will code it for Wordpress.
If you want to know more or have questions to ask me,
feel free to send me an e-mail. Thank You.

Nice spam ChiQ! If you were really good, you would have at least told why it is related to the post. I'm leaving it up though-for now.
james, I have read where some have switched single or double quotes in the code to get it to work. I think it is odd Google would have introduced something that is such a problem. Introduce AdSense for mobi sites and then make video ads a problem for possibly the most popular blogging platform? Does not make sense. (AdSense?)
I tried it out as well, inserted the code into my Wordpress post and nothing show up, except some hyper-linked words. I haven't though about since then.
I apologize if you consider it spam, i just couldn't find a contact info anywhere. please delete my first post if you must! thanks!
Oh, so you wanted to spam my email account instead?:)
Just glad you're a real person. Perhaps as a designer you might know why the video ads work so oddly?
