First Bytes: Yahoo Makeover, Google's "Mail Goggles," Digg, Monster.com

--Google launches two new ad products today, a click-link-to-buy on YouTube and adsense on Flash games. 


--Monster.com acquires the remaining 55 percent of the Chinese recruitment site ChinaHR.com for $178 million.

--Gmail now comes with "Mail Goggles," a built in security, or "breathalyzer," that asks you a series of math questions before sending out an email to make sure you're not E.U.I.--emailing under the influence.

--Om Malik asks, should Digg buy StumbleUpon?

--Finally, after ten years, Yahoo launches a major overhaul of its calendar today, with potential for social-networking features and more online ads. Is an AOL deal next? 

--Andrea Chalupa
