A single link to a product being designed by Google, when the product in question (a Chromebook) uses the same product (Chrome) as it's primary interface is hardly 'ZOMG! Chrome is running the ads now!!!'.

Yeah, but they are GOOGLE Apps for Chrome. Others have Chrome apps too, no?

They are apps he has installed. You don't call the Internet Explorer icon on Windows an "advertisement" do you?
Yeah, like Amazon, Mint, Tumblr or Wikipedia!
