<h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
<a href="javascript:var%20b=document.body;var%20GR________bookmarklet_domain="http://www.google.com";if(b&&!document.xmlVersion){void(z=document.createElement("script"));void(z.src="http://www.google.com/reader/ui/link-bookmarklet.js");void(b.appendChild(z));}else{}"> <img src="http://imgur.com/3GJMv.png" border="0" alt="Share on Google Buzz" /></a>
3. Save.
Happy buzzing!

If your and AdWords advertiser, you many know that Google PPC ads can be placed on mobile web browsers. When new campaigns and accounts are being set-up, advertising to mobile devices is automatically included in the default settings in addition to computers.

Next, select “Let me Choose” and un-check the “Desktop and Laptop computers” while keeping the “mobile” radio button selected.
