Advertising Magic

[benjenbav]

Ain't it a blooming wonder? I've had a couple of days of ads on here for tyres cos I bought some at the w/e and then I look at just two quadcopter vids and, suddenly, the top of my ybw page is full of ads for drones. I'm just glad I didn't google talking dogs when the subject came up...

That explains why I keep getting adds for skimpy underwear ???

Yup, same here BJB. Thing is, if you actually bought a drone thru (say) google-shopping the one you wanted, you would get every pixel you've ever owned filled with drone ads, as I have for the last week since buying one. So, stick to just clicking on a youtube link on here and you'll endure merely a bit of drone ad flak. Don't actually buy one else you will get carpet bombed with ads for the thing you already bought

AdBlock, it's a wonderful Chrome extension

For me it just shows a large area of white space - clearly worked out I am too poor to be worth advertising anything too

Yup, it's kinda crazy but fun also.

Well they've got me all wrong.

A banner for some site where you give stuff and get nothing in return other than a warm fuzzy glow.

The gas board have installed a meter that gives me a warm fuzzy glow when I turn the boiler up so why would I need to send money to the other side of the world?

Google must have me mistaken for someone with a heart !
