Does AdMob support Google Chrome packaged apps?

I am aslo looking for the answer. I have couple of apps published on
Google Chrome Web Store, need to monetize them.

The Terms of Use does not restrict the distribution channel of any
app, unless it violates a Terms of Use section or other restriction.
In other words, it doesn't require distribution through the Android
Market; you can use any market, as long as the use of a market doesn't
violate something else (like copyright or some local law). There was a
thread on this a while back, but I can't find it right now.

If by "support" you mean some level of support services for meeting
Google Chrome Webstore guidelines, then that is something you should
probably not expect (from AdMob or any other ad network). Whether your
app/AdMob ads are in compliance with a distribution channel is for you
to monitor and determine (including Android Market).

The SDKs have been developed for the Android, iOS, and WP7 platforms;
I'm not really sure how how you'd get them to run in Chrome...

I don't know either, but maybe like the JS API like here:

http://groups.google.com/group/google-admob-ads-sdk/browse_thread/thread/06bedbb67a00f07c#

I haven't tried it... but this was the thread I was thinking of, then
I got distracted thinking about whether the Terms of Use would be
violated. Clearly, that implementation method is not supported.

So, is there any way we could put some ads on Chrome apps at this
moment?

Judging by the content here, it sounds like you'll want to check out AdSense for Mobile Content.

Cheers,

Thank you, but I checked it out and it looks like it's only for
websites designed for smartphones. Am I wrong? Thanks.
