Google Adds Rounded Corners Option to AdSense Ads
Was Google AdSense a bit too square for you? Well, now you can opt for rounded corners.
The Google AdSense Blog announced two types of rounded corners. The first is "slightly rounded corners" and the second is "very rounded corners."
Here is a screen capture of the new feature in the AdSense publisher console that enables publishers to select the roundness of their ads.
And here is a "very rounded corners" ad, that is live:
So far the feedback in the forums are very positive towards this new addition and element of control. There is only one post with feedback on the impact on earnings, but I won't quote that until we get some more feedback from a larger set of publishers.

This is a cool option for their ads. I'll have to give it a try. I don't think it would have much impact on eCPM, other than a short term "oh that's different" attention the ads might draw until the novelty wears off.
