    Are CP ads targeted or randomly generated? because the two adds I always get dashboard and the 60 free controls but after I posted about GIS on Q/A I got an ESRI ad?

      Even though I never posted anything about GIS, I see the ESRI ad quite often, so I don't think, they are targeted.

            My CP ads are for wheelchairs, funeral services, prosthetic devices, Hospices for the dying with names like "Happy Endings," and denture fixative glues. best, Bill

            "Many : not conversant with mathematical studies, imagine that because it [the Analytical Engine] is to give results in numerical notation, its processes must consequently be arithmetical, numerical, rather than algebraical and analytical. This is an error. The engine can arrange and combine numerical quantities as if they were letters or any other general symbols; and it fact it might bring out its results in algebraical notation, were provisions made accordingly." Ada, Countess Lovelace, 1844

              You jest but if CP advertised things I was actually interested in buying there would be a lot more click through. I have not interest in purchasing products that eliminate my job or going to conference that tell me how to eliminate my job or how easily my job can be eliminated with a simple tool. Show me an ad for 15% of a high-tech toy I was already going to buy or give me 2:1 burritos at the bell for being a member, you will have some clickage going on! I get hundreds of clicks to my site from CP but not a single one of them has ever been from a business decision maker (as far as I can tell). Thus the ads here really do not make sense. The site is for developers and the ads are for CTO's.

              Need custom software developed? I do custom programming based primarily on MS tools with an emphasis on C# development and consulting. A man said to the universe: "Sir I exist!" "However," replied the universe, "The fact has not created in me A sense of obligation." --Stephen Crane
