Once they get out of preview, it'll all be automated I'm sure. Going over the free quota will simply incur costs. Hopefully they will have measures in place so you can set a roof for how much you want to spend and so on. They have such for adwords though, so they should have that here as well.
With that said, the support has been awfully unresponsive during this preview period, quota issues aside. It certainly doesn't leave a good impression of how they will handle support at launch. Somewhat off-topic: Out of curiosity, how are you actually thumbnailing the sites? I assume you run a seperate box with a cron or something to that effect? And do you happen to know a way to get the image dimensions / metadata using the google images api? - Thomas On Sep 3, 6:37 pm, "Paul Kinlan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I hope they will help me out.
