i sent a link over their newly acquired IM service... and now all my ads are for the company owning that link.
for one side I'm impressed at their speed in incorporating that new window into my privacy. ...or maybe the selling price was so high because that was already a feature? anyway, on the other hand, I'm unimpressed by either their inventory of ads or ability to classify the content they know i know.
if they showed me things relevant to that link it would be interesting. they just flooded me with ads for something i might even own already. its like the cheap ad networks on desktop. see one item at amazon, now all sites in the world will show you that item. they just spent billions to race the mobile ads to the bottom from the get go.
