A Look Inside Pandora's Mind

A bunch of thoughts and rants from the mind of Pandora.

The People at Google Are Racist.

Friday, May 2, 2008

Well, I was looking over my blog today and I came upon this.



This kinda offended me. Look closely at the Google Ad. You may or may not know, I am "Latina" or Hispanic, of Mexican descent, so this is a bit offensive to me.
I installed the Google AdSense application on this blog to help me make money. A Google crawler is supposed to "crawl" my page and then place a "relevant" advertisement on my blog. How in the hell is a "Pretty Mexican Bride" in ANY WAY relevant to my blog? Other than, I'm Hispanic and these people think it's funny to be racist. Well, ethnicist is probably a better word.. anyway.. this irked the hell out of me.
You would think out of the MANY advertisers on the Google network, they could come up with something better than this. This AdSense stuff isn't even making me any money anyway since no one is clicking on the Google Ads, but that's a different rant for a different time.
