h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I think it must. I was reading an article on urban farming on another site, and now I'm getting ads here for chicken coops.

Google knows all.

Perhaps we should all try Googling for free money Worth a try?

If the ads are raising badly-needed revenue for the site, I'm certainly willing to overlook them. It's just that I get a chuckle from themsometimes.

I get ads for T-shirts. It's like the camera is on.

Good choice, Nerd, great taste

Yesterday it was an ad for tick-removal [I had a tick on me last week, but it came off readily enough with alcohol]. Today it was gluten-free bread.

Don't forget to email screen shots of these to comms! As the saying goes: "Pics or it didn't happen"

They remove ticks with gluten free bread now

Could somebody tell an ignoramus with Windows XP how to make a screenshot?

I could, but there isn't one around.

If you do ever see one, Dmitri, tell them to press Alt + PrtScr

I think I'm going to start a journal entry to specifically attract the most obscure advertisements.. though since I clicked on that one offering dubious treatment for vaginal prolapse I've got some strange ones.

To make a screen shot in Windows:

Hold down Alt and press Print Screen. This captures the screen into your cut and paste buffer.

Now go into your favourite e-mail program, create an e-mail and paste the screen shot in.

Thanks much. That's it - I didn't know where the screenshot went...

Stop clicking on those dodgy medical ads, Z. Talk about tmi...

You can also open a picture viewing program and press ctrl+v which should make the screenshot appear, then save it as usual.
