You know how Facebook puts ads on the left side of your profile?
Today's ad on my profile is for a device that one sits in to be carried up a stair-case. It shows a nice, elderly gray-haired lady sitting in such a thing at the bottom of the stairs, getting ready for the lift.
Thanks, Facebook.

That's interesting. Today for the first time I noticed those ads, too. Mine, however, had a picture of a blonde cheerleader and was, ostensibly, for a site showing the "Top High School Cheerleaders."
Seriously.
Thanks, Facebook!
Don't you think that there is some sort of algorithm that matches one's Facebook "profile" with the advertiser? That's what I was thinking when I saw that stair-elevator ad. (I use "algorithm" to show that I may know what I am talking about. Which, of course, is false.) So I figured that there was a connection between, say, the "grandpa with grandson" photo and people who sell products to aging Boomers. But what is it in your profile that gets you the cheerleader ad? :)
