Has anyone noticed that the ad banners across the bottom of the pages are usually about what we are discussing?? How does that happen?? For example....on the topic I started about sandals there was just an ad about HP sandals. If we are discussing food then there are food ads. Its kinda creepy.....but I always did like a good haunted house! :wink:

Guess they pick up on key words. the other day some one was saying something about printer ink, and there was an ad for it!

Kinda makes you feel like we're being watched........guess what ...we are. I did a search the other day and not while on this message board and guess what.....I'm staring right now at an advertisement for what I did the search on.....that should tell ya something.....lol.

I had a post going about a quilt that I wanted from PB Teen (pottery barn teen) and the adds were about that!

It's weird!

On my Facebook page it's the same, only for whatever reason I keep getting adds for Indian (india) dating sites... The only thing I put on my page pertaining to India was that I was going there my sophomore year of college... weird.

I've noticed the ads before too. Wondered who, how it's done.

montanaquilter 05-14-2010 06:19 AM

i guess there are no haunted houses for sale cause there's no ad for them yet at the end of this!!HAHA

thimblebug6000 05-14-2010 06:36 AM

I guess I'm missing out .... I never look at the ads.

MNQuilter 05-14-2010 06:38 AM

My favorite is the lady who starts out looking a bit like me and then miraculously shrinks to look like DH's fantasy!

Alu_Rathbone 05-14-2010 07:33 AM

We could just talk about haunted houses... hehe... or start a thread... just to experiment... we could call it...

"The Quilters Experiment With Ad Banners"

And then we can do several pages on one thing... and then change it to something else... could be fun..

littlehud 05-14-2010 07:40 AM

It is funny. Big brother is watching.

So many subjects have been mentioned in this thread that I'll be curious to see what comes up. Just for fun let's throw out a couple of new subjects.

I would love to vacation in Lake Tahoe.

Is anyone buying a new Mercedes?

I'm looking for an antique rocking chair?

Now let's just see what happens.

Alu_Rathbone 05-14-2010 08:44 AM

My sisters father in law made her a rocking chair to use to rock the baby. It's gorgeous... I think he antiqued it too.

quiltsRfun 05-14-2010 08:56 AM

I'm seeing an ad for pest control! How funny!

Do antiques = pests? :lol:

Alu_Rathbone 05-14-2010 08:59 AM

I have great pest control... we have 4 cats to deal with that!

amma 05-14-2010 10:17 AM

During the mare stare chats, talking about different things mare related (body parts), there were some VERY interesting ads that came up LMBO

On Facebook, there is a place that if you don't "uncheck it" the ads are generated off of your personal profile :wink:

sewcrazygirl 05-14-2010 07:36 PM

its keywords. probably google related.

sewnsewer2 05-14-2010 08:34 PM

I noticed that too.

sewcrazygirl 05-14-2010 08:43 PM

its how the site makes money. im sure they need to raise funds some how.

It is key words... but generated by our conversations...

conversation could pull up phone ad's like Vonage.
