This isn’t a politics-only blog, so we’ll often talk about toys or clothes or books or even specific museums. Whenever we bring up some particular product, I’ll see from the referral logs that marketing companies or the company itself will show up here.

Sometimes this leads to very pleasant experiences. Like the time, the CEO from Annie’s sent me boxes of Mac n’ Cheese.

Other times, something creepy happens. We mentioned a very specific museum last week. Someone used this service to find out what we were saying.
