I was wondering how the ads on the front page are chosen. Is it just a cycle of ads or is it based on cookies or some other method? The reason I ask is that I saw an ad which at best I can describe as "interesting" (e.g. gfizz.com).

I guess what I'm trying to say is that when I think of guitarnoise, gfizz.com doesn't jump into my head.

A la Seinfeld, "Not that there's anything wrong with that."

It's based on the colour of your underwear.

I started with nothing - and I've still got most of it left.
Did you know that the word "gullible" is not in any dictionary?

its based on the topic of what is mostly reffered to in a page.. its how google spiders get lists, by searching for the most common words... most matches, closer to the top of the search list.

it basically gets a general gist of whats going on by whats been typed / written, sends out its spiders, returns results that match the same topic, and display them (because it thinks its relavent to the page you are viewing)

so this applies to all the ads, even the banner ad at the very top of the page?

I'm glad to say I had to look that site up. And no, guitarnoise doesn't remind me of gfizz.com either.

I can honestly say GFizz NEVER pops into my head.

If you know something better than Rock and Roll, I'd like to hear it - Jerry Lee Lewis

You may not want to browse it at work, if you have internet restrictions. May raise more eyebrows with the IT folk than Guitarnoise does.
But of course, to each their own and all that. I like the Seinfeld quote, very funny episode. :lol: :lol:
