AdWords Ads Down Friday Evening

It was an ad free world at Google, at least for part of Friday afternoon. Reports via WebmasterWorld and Search Engine Watch Forums show members documenting the outage.

Basically, they reported when they went to Google.com or any Google, and searched on a term, no sponsored results came up.

Maybe it was for "tax free" week in NYC or maybe it was a glitch.

Forum discussion at WebmasterWorld, Search Engine Watch Forums and Cre8asite Forums.
