The ad feed on this board is hilarious. Yes I know how it works...it reads your web history and feeds you ads that fit your history. But this one is particularly sharp. Apparently I have "Coast" somewhere in my history because I'm getting a deluge of "Join the Coast Guard" ads. I was shopping for Orioles hats for my wife and now I have ads for almost every business in Baltimore and every baseball hat company. Bought plane tickets to SF and I get cheap hotel ads. Good thing I'm not searching porn sites. Or maybe I should.

I can verify that it doesn't suggest any porn sites.

I have that ad blocker thing so I just get a message asking me to consider allowing the ads....No. Those flashplayer ads fuck up my computer's speed.

I use Chrome browser with Ad Block Plus (Google Plug In - free) and also Ghostery ( www.ghostery.com/en/) lets you see what ad companies are being loaded into your browser and block them. Haven't seen an ad in months on any site. |

Keeping Score's ad suggestions led to inquiries from the FBI, PETA, those bastards at Better Homes and Gardens, and local Wisconsin authorities.

I was wondering what ads would be served to raccoon lovers.

Is there any way I can post an image to the board direct from my phone? I see how to post images that are on the net by linking to them and how to post images from my phone to change my avatar, but not to post images from my phone to the board. I know I can just post my photos to an online photo site, but wondering if we can do it direct without that step. Thanks.

It seems like the Add Attachment button would be the way to go. Not sure though. kesha uploaded several pics of the rusty fridge during his weekend with the boys in the barn, but I think he uploaded them to the Twittah.

ok that might work too. i could tweet photos from the world series pretty easily then link to them here. That's one option, though I'm not sure I want to bore all my twitter followers with world series pics. You guys on the other hand might enjoy close up photos of hunter pence bobbleheads or an inside up close and personal look at a san francisco "pharmacy".

kesha made a separate Twitter account just for that vacation. It was very cool.
