<<Today the site is launching a new feature that will give those monetization rates another boost: YouTube Promoted Video campaigns will now be able to appear on a video’s ‘watch’ page, turning the product into what’s effectively an ‘AdSense for YouTube’.>>

I've been seeing this for ages, or were those Featured videos?

the only new thing, as explained on http://ytbizblog.blogspot.com/2009/08/promoted-videos-now-appearing-on.html , is that promoted youtube videos will appear in the "related videos" list. They were already present meanwhile and at the end of videos, and in search results too.

"Promoted" is a misleading word. YouTube should use "sponsored" instead of "promoted", like it did before.

Yeah, it's very un-Googley (aka EVIL)
