Google Beta Tests New AdSense Ads

This is pretty cool, Google is beta testing the functionality to allow Web visitors to change the ads served up by Google AdSense. For example, you see an ad and it reads "Change to Ads About:" with a listing of related ad topics. When you click on a different topic, it then allows you to "Enter a different topic" and search on it. Here is an example site, look at the left hand skyscraper ads, scroll down to under the Google Ad and then click on that "Change to Ads About" option. You will see what I am talking about, if not, here is an image that will clarify.

I doubt users take time to fill a form to be served ads...

AdSense has been beta testing this since last October. I took some screen shots of the various styles of rad links in action back then (there is not always a search box, or there is also a search box alone). http://www.jenstar.ca/radlinks/

I am actually thinking whether it is worth the effort of promoting goole ads. Now content ads generate pennys and search ads are costly. What google trying to do is finding ways to earn more money on search ads. I mean to make the user click on them.
I feel that google is trying to get rich at the expense of adsense advertisers. I do not see a win-win situation here.

I am sorry for translation from Russian on English language.
I address to community of programmers and those people which the another's life, with the request for the help is not indifferent. Never thought that I shall address with similar requests, but the situation compels…
Doctors have found out malignant defeats of bones of a basin (from the left side) and the right hip. Expensive medical treatment abroad (including 2 operative interventions with replacement of joints) is necessary.
In view of that that at me is, and that friends can borrow that does not suffice the decent sum - hardly more than $20 000 Time strongly draws in! It is very a shame to me to ask, but I do not wish to lead the rest of a life in an armchair...
To trust in the Ukrainian doctors it is not obviously possible... Please, who than can help!
