Custom YouTube Player and Adsense

There is a lot of talk on the net today about a new embedded version of YouTube that allows you to have Adsense attached. So far there is not an actual functioning player to launch this, but obviously it is on the horizon.

The information at YouTube is located here.

I had not seen this done before and really liked the way it adds a little something to an otherwise plain video embed. Of course, the bad news is this caused me to get off track on my objectives for the day to see if I could do the same thing with the Google AJAX API videos, like I need [...]

Google AJAX APIs

As I am a very successful programmer and web developer and bring a lot of business to the table for many clients I work with, utilizing Google AJAX API is one of the most asked for services I provide on a professional level.
