Google Testing AdSense Switch

Google has been testing new "change ads" links for Google AdSense. You can see an example at the left side of ConsumerAffairs.com. Click on the "Change to Ads about" links to switch the theme of the advertisement above it. After you switched you can also see a search box to retrieve ads on any topic.

What triggers this special ad format seems to be the following line in the AdSense HTML/ JavaScript snippet (note you shouldn't change it yourself, as that's against the ToS):

google_ad_format = "160x600_radlinks_beta";
