Explain this: I go onto 'Master Tec' website, just to browse and see where his Devizes workshop is, then i go onto Facebork, and it's got 'Keith Goldsmith' on the right hand side, asking if i know him. Now HOW THE F*CK does that work? I understand cookies, but this is summat else, shall i don my tinfoil hat?

We all know what you're really thinking and the answer is 'YES' they do know about those other sites you've been looking at! :o

Not entirely sure how it does it but it does something along the lines of checking all your friends then cross referencing them with their friends and so on till it comes up with a list......

Now i will go sit in the corner with my dunce cap on whilst sucking my thumb. 8-)

It's called re-marketing. Do you leave yourself logged in to Facebook? It's very clever..we do it at work. If you view our website, then you'll see our adverts more often on other sites because of cookies so you get used to seeing the brand
