And I think it looks bad to advertise on my personal website. Shortbus, I don’t get enough visitors to make it worthwhile to plaster this site with ads.

I don't know how accurate the facebook adds are. It seems that I am suppose to travel a lot, go back to college, get a boyfriend, and sell a house I don't own. Where are your advertisements?

I don't really mind it; again, more useful than the junk I would otherwise get.

I do agree that they are improving somewhat, it does seem like I've been getting somewhat more variety over the last month or so. Haha, something to look forward to I guess.

When I was engaged I was getting all kinds of ads about wedding planning, dress shopping, cake buying. It was a little annoying. They have also made it a little more specific. I get all kinds of stuff now for musicians, biking, and running. I feel like some other sites are using this as well. Just on random sites, I am getting ads from art.com, where we bought one painting from, steep and cheap, musicians friend, and other places that I have bought things from. They must be able to check cookies in your computer to tell what sites you have visited, and then show you ads from those sites. Wait till your relationship status changes.
