There aren't ads, just internal promotion, tips & tricks for using Google Calendar. If you remember, 10 years ago most applications had a tips dialog that opened at startup. |
I know it's internal promotion, but their format is too similar to the new Google Maps ads and Gmail Webclips.

Hello TipsClip
Another ui redesign sightings:
Picasaweb: (nothing new, I think) *Settings http://lh5.ggpht.com/_9Q0q2eaQVJU/Sgv8BAbV_5I/AAAAAAAAARU/1-Wo-YDo7aM/Picasaweb.png *Favorites+Fans
Google Webmasters http://lh4.ggpht.com/_9Q0q2eaQVJU/Sgv8B5gJHfI/AAAAAAAAARY/oIKh5fysMSQ/Webmasters.png
and just now, Google News http://news.google.com |
The tips can be turned off in your Calendar settings. |
I have the new Google News too:

Google News is down for me. 503 Server Timeout. |
