Ads by Google: Your colors

John Gruber has managed to customise his google ads to his site color scheme. I guess Goolge is now letting sites do this as a sneaky peak at the Daring Fireball source reveals:

google_color_border = “818183″;
google_color_bg = “999999″;
google_color_link = “29426C”;
google_color_url = “333333″;
google_color_text = “000000″;

Which is a damn site better than the hideous white/blue combination that stuck out like a sore thumb on the site.
