Field Guide to Programmers

Awhile back I wrote about Dax Herrera's Google AdSense plug-in for Wordpress. I happened to be out trolling the treasure troves of plug-ins for a different site when I came across Urban Giraffe's excellent Google Ad Wrap plug-in.

The plug-in is really sweet because it allows you to tell AdSense about the relative content on your page (thus improving the ad targeting):

Section Targeting is a way of embedding special tags inside HTML to give Google's omnipresent spider a better idea of what's important on your page. This is a really simple plugin that wraps posts and comments inside these tags, in the hope that they'll lead to better search rankings.

Even if you don't use Wordpress, the idea of section targeting is powerful.
