    Not saying they arent advertising, but I've never seen their ads ...

    The advertising from google follows YOUR browsing and/or topics / keywords. When I came on here today, I'm getting Advance auto parts ads because I was on their site yesterday, and had never saw that before here. .... If someone post up about exhaust, it's got a Borla add .... etc, so I assume you are on some site as part of your routine that picks up a cookie or something and the advertising is following you.

    I hate ads - I don't listen to radio and I DVR everything because the repetition is maddening, I do whatever I can to avoid them. When I need to buy something I go look for it, ads don't work for me.

    Thats quite interesting, and something I never noticed before. I'm good at ignoring the ads, but just now I chose to look at the one being advertised. It was for a fuel efficient chevy and they listed the fuel economy as 5.4l/100km. Unless it was cookie-based advertising and/or ip monitoring, why put the fuel economy figures in metric?

    Interesting....

    Very interesting. Does make total sense though, I'm pretty heavy in the gym/working out world and I frequent a few sites and read alot about new products, makes total sense now!

    man that works great w/ Firefox. No more stupid banners on the top of every site. I still get the ones on steelcitystangs on the top right, but there the local business ones that support the site, no more misc banners in the middle top page part.
