Kevin Gibbons spotted a couple new features in Google AdWords for advertisers, including a convenient way for advertisers who are not based in the United States to now change the format of numbers, times, and dates within their accounts.

For example, if you prefer your dollars and cents to have a comma instead of a period, you can specify that. If you prefer your dates to start with the day and not the month, you can specify that. How do you do that? Here are the instructions on how to configure that setting.

Another feature AdWords released recently is to see on the Account Snapshot page a view to compare campaign performance across two date ranges and/or metrics. More about that over here.
