SN's Ads smarter or flashback?

ok, it may just be me... am i having a flashback?!?!?... or are the banner ads at the top of my screen suddenly linking to key words or maybe links in posts?

if so, is it tailored to user? ie im seeing a skymall ad now, cause i mentioned em today, anyone else seeing that or are you seeing ads corresponding to whatever you typed in?


btw, is it getting warm in here or am i having a stroke?

test test:
Porsche
Saab

Welcome to the world of Google Ads my good man. There is no privacy.

Oh, and you're having a stroke.

Hey, I just got an ad for stroke medication! Sweet!

Not good enough Mick.... now if you go and google "boobs boobs boobs" a time or two then you'll get the ads - they'll know what sites you've visited and will give you ads to what you seem to want!!!
