    I just booked the Hotel Galvaz and Spa in Gavelston, Texas for Thursday.
    Then logged on here and see it advertised.
    Weird.

    It's not a coincidence - it's called remarketing, and a majority of websites are doing it now.

    Keep an eye on the sites you visit and then be aware of the banner ads you see dotting the net afterwards, they'll be 'strangely' correlated.

    You'd need to turn off your cookies to avoid this kind of advertising.

    Oh, and Google knows more about you than you'd be comfortable telling anyone else.

    For reference, this is what I do for a living...

    facebook is very good at this . I've watched the ad CHANGE as I post a comment on someone's wall lol

    a lot of sites do it, I believe gmail scans for keywords in your email for relevant ads as well.
