Google ads are here on DU. (I think)..So what is the deal?

Google knows what you are clicking on...say try clicking on this thread that I started.


http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x3157476

then, Google (and this is very important)... not knowing or caring who or what you are ...prepares an ad, for something, someone interested in that topic..would like..that the ad is appropriate for the viewer..

Evidently this did not work, it worked before...(perhaps it works when the person is not logged in, or when the thread is at the top of the forum...who knows?

..ok, I not right about everything,, I admit it..,disregard..

(but wait................I logged out, went back to this post..and guess what I saw, when it was at the top of the forum...
an ad, to get more views per ad...as someone said,,,,I kid you not,,,and when I logged back in, that ad was gone..oh well..Fuck me..).
