Google Chrome download banner

Is this available to AdSense users?

I just visited a site that had a Google Chrome browser download banner across the top. I'd love to have this on my sites! Looks like it's coming from ad.doubleclick.net which means it's a Google product. Anybody know if this is somehow available to us AdSense publishers?

I've seen it a very few times on one of my own sites via adsense. I've no idea if it actually pays or how it is targeted (the content should not trigger browser ads)

Since they scrapped the Firefox referrals, I was hoping that Google might revise the program but this time with Chrome instead. BTW, the Chrome banner I saw was much better than any Firefox referral banner Google ever released too.

Since Chrome is not a global community initiative like Firefox, Google would do well to throw in some incentives for publishers to support it, IE is automatically gaining market share on daily basis you know..

Bring back Referrals Google.

Not with my visitors actually they are moving away from MSIE on a continued basis. I consider diversity to be good, so I applaud it.

I guess GOOG has some statistics on the usage of the different browsers out there (probably far better than we all have individually).

I'm all for having referrals for Chrome (only this time, please: INTERNATIONAL).

If they do I'll add something like:


 <!--[if lte IE 7]>
   <h1 style="color:white;background-color:red;text-align:center;">upgrade
   your browser now!</h1>
   <!--big fat chrome banner goes here-->
 <![endif]-->

Pity <blink> doesn't work anymore.
