The summary field and we can't change it.

After we discovered this, we went into the dashboard and took the first 2 lines of the description and pasted it into the Summary Field. It took us a while to figure this out but it works - we assumed it was working.

This is okay as it is and should not be changed.

Google will only ready the first couple of lines and so it is better to use the Summary field to customize what you want to say - it may be different than what you want on the web site description - which will probably be much longer than 2 lines. OR you can just cut and paste the beginning of your description into the Summary Field - Many other AC sites use the Summary Field as a Short Description.

Yes, they are phasing Froogle out.

Froogle is now been phased over to Google Product or Shopping. To load products and use it, you need to use Google Base to access it as Judy said.
