Thread topics cause targeted advertisements?

[tri again]

I've been known for my lack of 'estute grasp of the obvious',
but if we write about scissor lifts, or house furnace heater woes,
or water well topics etc etc,
mysteriously, ads specific to those topics appear in the postings.

Just kinda interesting and kinda helpful as a resource
for more info.

So your saying if we type certain words, advertisements and pictures pop on the site at the top, bottom, side, whatever?...........(naked woman on trikes, naked hotties on trike, nude models on 3-wheelers, boobs, hot girls with tattoo's, bikini women on three-wheelers, Bill Golightly in a G-string [< I just threw that one in for fun!]).

Google finds ads to place in the banners depending on the keywords inside the thread...

Oddly enough, there is an ad for scissor lifts at the top of this thread when I'm posting this :lol:

I don't see ad dispays on any site, firefox add-ons fixed this for me, makes for a much better surfing without having to see them... :D

[Dammit!]

Google ad sense also uses your browsing history to show ads that might interest you. I get camera ads all the time. Actually scored a good deal on a memory card through these ads before too.

yeah, if you look at the dui scissor lift post or the HVAC expert post, there are ads on the top right covering about 1/2 the area of the post.

Maybe it has to be in the topic line. and/or body of the text, don't know yet.

Maybe someone can type in bikini in the subject line and see what happens.

I gotta go and see who the %$# just pulled into the driveway.
