Looking at

http://www.google.com/coop/cse/

and at the increased number of banners I think canonical is making money
out of that - if this is the case, it should be stated on the web page
above the search (something like "search google with this form and make
ubuntu earn money"), just to show everybody that ubuntu is not the usual
business company. Especially considered that an option that google
offers to non-profit organizations is to have a custom search _without_
ads.

Your mileage may vary, I understand that :)
