Could just be a test of new formats, just tweaking everything to see if they can get more clicks.

This isnt the first time. Google did it a few months back too, they removed it after a couple of days - a little annoying tho (looks ugly).

I agree. A way to brand adsense some more. Though I think the fact that Google is somewhat of a quirky company also comes into play. Think of all the time they pay with their logo on the Google search page.

But there is a fact that it affects earnings... Most of people click google ads because they dont know that its an advertising. But like that google make them know that it is an avertising.

just got an email with this in it from google...
ds by Goooooogle We’re currently running a test with new branding features on Google ads. You may notice some of your pages displaying ‘Ads by Goooooogle’ ad units. We welcome your feedback on this new look, and we’ll be analyzing the results of this test over the next while. |

seems like a new way for google to get traffic to their sites by manipulating the wording of their own link... and rather ugly at that

Might be the first one to say this, but I don't mind the new format at all.
