World of Stelfox had an entry that seems to have disappeared about how the Blogger ad server looks at what you're writing about, checks the word-hits against the list associated with their advertisers and serves up a targeted set of commercial messages (see banner ad on top of page).

Today I am getting something about Graham Island, which appears to be near Sicily - who'd have thought it! And a documentary about Robert Anton Wilson. Have I ever mentioned him here? I doubt it. As a teenager I was very taken by the Illuminatus books and he was a great influence on my thinking. It may sound gauche, but he really did make me look at the world in an entirely different way (and not in terms of loopy conspiracies I should point out). So I am pleased that the blogger admind thought that one up.
