Google Print Ads

You can now create Google AdWords in print publications like Information Week or Motor Trend. Click on the magazine that picks your interest, enter your AdWords login & Customer ID (found in the upper right corner of your AdWords account), and select the ad space. The ads are offered as part of an auction system – you place a bid – though you can’t seem to see what bid others have placed so far. The auction runs until February 20.

I’ve placed a $30 bid for a 1/4 page at Information Week. By far not enough I guess, but maybe at least that helps me find out what the winning bid was. Google says they’ll email those with a winning bid by March 3.

On a side-note, after logging into AdWords with an older email address I used at time of sign-up, Google guided me through a multi-step process allowing me to merge/switch to my unified Google Account. (While I like the fact that I only need a single login for different Google services, it would be even nicer if I would stay logged in as well across different services... and not always have to enter my password again.)
