Rasmalai by Haldiram…no Malai…only रस

We just opened our can expecting Ras Malai that we bought from Cherians’ few days ago. To our surprise in the can there was nothing which could look like any Ras Malai, instead we got the white Rasgullas and those too were fattened….may be to give them the shape of  रसमलाई.

Adsense Recommendations: Replace Ad units

Today, when I logged in to check my revenue from Google Adsense, there was a notification on dashboard. It was actually a recommendation to change a smaller ad unit to a larger one. It was suggested with optimist of increased revenue by up to 45 %.

Adsense Recommendations

I remember few month ago there was a suggestion to replace 200-250 pixel wide ads with 300 pixel wide ads. After a thought, I made required changes in theme and had accommodated that and it really worked. However, this time as the recommendations says replacing a 468 pixel wide ad with a 728 one would be a bit harder to adjust.

Let’s see if I can incorporate this one too in the current theme with some effort Smile
