Weekly Recomender Log

This week I moved to Charleston, SC - at least my Google persona is in Charleston! I searched the real estate market and settled into the James Island neighborhood. My new zip code is 29412. I am beginning to feel right at home.

This is a very strange process for me. Over the last several years, I have been concerned about privacy and have only given out demographic data if I had a very good reason. Now I am clicking like mad!

Another strange notion for me is all of the ads I am seeing. I tend to bock ads. But not now, everybody in Charleston want to sell be something. I must be important, everybody want to get to know me.

I noticed that when I search on "James Island, SC" that I got a lot of adds from Realtors that were promoting them selfs as James Island but when I click, I was taken to their generic Charleston site where I was invited to search again for James Island.
