...at the bottom of the screen, (just below the "thread box")? I've noticed lately that the ads always relate to something I've been searching for on Google. Several weeks ago it was "La Quinta Inn", I was shopping for a hotel room at the time. Before that it was "shocks", I was looking for a certain length shock for my Xj. Now it's "auto trader", as I have researching to sell a vehical. What do you see in your "personalized" pop up ad??

A little box saying I can write a review for this site on Alexa. I think I may just do that.

You are correct sir. They keep track of what you have been searching and display targeted banner ads to you.

Big brother is here...
they can see your emails (if you are using gmail)
they know what you are looking for, they know what are the sites that you spend your time in.
If you have a "smart phone" they know where you are to show you ads relevant to your location.

I usually see a lot of Super Bright LED ad. What, i like lights...


I don't have a problem, under 300 LEDs on a vehicle is just not right...


Dark scares me.

I currently have an Amazon ad for tools

Edit: It changed after I posted and had to include this one...
"The Best Rear Ends in the Business"
It's an ad for ringpinion.com
