Google Adsense Sent Me A LavaLamp

So I got this package today from Google and I was like wow… what could it be..

Its a Yellow lavalamp… doesnt say anything Google on the lavalamp it self. Kind of weird its just a plain old lavalamp.

Attached was a card thanking me for testing the premium content MTV video ads with AdSense.

Thanks Google I think this is going to make a great kind of night light.

    Somewhere in the google office someone is asking, “Has anyone seen my Lava Lamp?!?!?!?!”

  4. Patrick

    That is pretty neat.

    Forget the lava-lamp for a sec… is that a Chicago Cubs hat on your head. Is ShoeMoney a cubs fan?

    It is really nice that Google thinks about publishers.

  7. Game Producer

    Lol, one more reason to get into adsense ;)

    Wow! So, you finally got the lava lamp. We actually got a Google couch back in 2003.

    The least they could do is put a Google sticker on the thing.

    I got a couple Google lava lamps with google logos a couple months ago. Remember, lava lamps work because they get very hot…they were a huge fire hazard back in the day…although this could have been because of the other activies taking place while using the lamps….

    hmm…

    WTF? They mailed out aspirin to another developer two weeks ago, now they’re sending you a lava lamp?

    They must think you’re a stoner or something.

    All google ever sent me was “your adsense account got banned” email, in fact they have sent me several. I must be special.

    LOL that is sweet. Although, I would rather have something besides yellow myself…do you think Google would mind if you sent it back and asked for a different color?

  13. James

    Sounds like a recycled gift they had lying around from last year’s Christmas party.

    A guy in my office has a Google lava lamp. I think he stole if from a Google party here in Atlanta when he was drunk. It looks nice in his office.

    *GASP* Is that a freakin cubs hat on your head?!?

  16. Keith Cash

    That is cool. The only freebees i ever get are pens and notepads.

  17. Andrea

  18. Arthur

  19. garrett

    hippy

    More like so 60s, very retro.
    Very cool, but very hot also.
    Remember to keep Juliet’s little prying fingers away form it when she is old enough to explore everything!
    Better off with an LED light as a night light, much cooler, no need to replace bulbs and cheaper to run. :)

  21. mattboy

    man, that is so 90’s…….is that the best they could come up with

    i am guessing by your post that you got a free lava lamp, made some assumptions based on its shape and “nice, warm feel” and have been abusing it in a way that was not intended by the maker.

    FYI… its just a lamp. Just a conversation piece.

    Take yours out of the sock drawer, wash it off one more time (better use bleach) and put it on a shelf in the living room where it belongs.

    heh – cheap. Overture sent me a Lavalamp just for being an all around good fella years ago… What DIDN’T Google steal from them…?

    No offense but that is the gayest thing ive ever seen

  25. ShoeMoney

    I saw about a 25% over where the normal text ad was. Since this is a premiere program that could be mostly due to the increased rev split.

  26. James

    Maybe they’ve installed a little secret camera to spy on you!

  27. avantrosa

    Sweeeet… You allowed to disclose performance on those video ads?
