I followed a link to a dance video. What comes up as an ad while I'm watching Youtube?: a ballroom dance ad in Ottawa. I feel a little claustrophobic right now. The world is changing so fast.

1. Were they correct?
Assuming that they're targeting their audience, are you interested in ballroom dance in Ottawa?

2. You know I have thought of taking a dance class in Ottawa because I need excercise. Not ballroom
dancing but jazz or contemporary or hip hop or something. So yeah..they are right.

3. that is happening to me a lot lately, too
If I look at something to buy from certain websites, no matter what I do online later, ads for what I was looking at and for the sites I was on pop up EVERYWHERE!!

4. Did you go directly from one site to another?
I've heard that that is one bit of information that can't be hidden.

Otherwise, I don't know how a web site could search your browser for cookies deposited by another site.

As if paranoid people didn't have enough to worry about, now they actually are being monitored on a computer.
