Aren't internet ads generated by ones' internet browsing history??

Yes. I see ads related to stuff I've searched for all the time.

At least that ad is much more interesting to look at than any ad I ever get served up. I guess I'm using the internet wrong...

I get these types of ads Ski Essentials right off the bat after looking at a post by HS.

I saw the same ad as the OP on my desktop at work. Trust me, nothing in my browser history on THAT computer should trigger that ad.

Occasionally wierd ads show up from Adwords. I haven't seen that one before though. Normally it is based on browser history soooooooo :)
