    Wow… that’s like when Amazon or Netflix says “You liked [insert romantic comedy], you’ll probably enjoy [insert blood and gore horror film]!”

    You know… as soon as I opened this blog page an Evony ad popped up along the side. ;)

    Be sure to click on every Evony ad you see! (of course, don’t play the game – just try to drive them out of business…)

    The funny thing about the ad above was that it was served to me when I was playing Restaurant City on Facebook. I think the algorithms are starting to follow us around the Internet quite well now. Tin-foil hat time!

    I’m pretty sure that the Facebook ads are based on what you have in your profile. I’m half-tempted to put some “creative” things in there to test the theory, but I’m sure I’d regret that somehow, this being the internet and all. ;)

    Enjoyed the new Three Moves Ahead podcast, by the way. Send me a line whenever you enter beta. ;)

    The bad things about Evony are not just carpetbombing the web with tasteless adverts. This whole scam is a Chinese gold farmer going first party. There is much more about it here: http://www.bruceongames.com/2009/07/10/dont-play-evony/
