I guess this test has been going on for awhile, but this is the first time I’ve come across the “Show More Ads” on a Google Adsense ad block:

The command shows-up on the content network only and takes users to a results page with more ads, like this. At present, the extra results are only loosely based on the original landing page content.

After clicking “Show More Ads,” for example, I received an ad for “Jobs in South Florida,” among others, which had nothing to do with the page I was previously visiting. So, unless results get more relevant, this looks a little more like a cash grab than a user-experience improvement.
