A search engine known for its simplistic and Adfree Homepage puts an Advertisement right in the middle of its Homepage.
Google really wants people to take a look at its Nexus 7 tablet.The $199 tablet started popping up on Google's home page today, a rare instance in which Google is actively promoting one of its own products.
That Google would go to such lengths underscores the company's desire to make a bigger dent in the burgeoning tablet market, one still dominated by Apple's iPad. Given the traffic that goes through Google, the home page would be one of the most coveted spots on the Web for advertisers. The company, however, has traditionally resisted attempts to run advertisements for paid products on its main page.
