Foreign Employers?

The job hunt continues, slowly but surely. Crashed a couple of career fairs on campus Tuesday and Wednesday that provided a few good leads. While in my Gmail and emailing various prospective employers, I glanced at the side, where the ads are. Those of you who use Gmail know that the ads are based on the content of your emails. In fact, Lisa and I tried testing it out by filling our emails with words like "dildo" to see if any adult-toy-related ads would come up. I can't remember if we had any success or not.

Anyway-- it was no surprise that the majority of the ads on the right-hand side of my Gmail today consisted of employment/recruitment-related websites. All except for a curious one that wasn't even written in English. I thought maybe it was a foreign employment agency or something, but when I clicked it, I ended up on a travel website that specialized in travel to/from India. Yeah... as if someone who's looking for a job will be able to afford overseas travel :-P

I took a screenshot so you can see for yourself. How do you suppose that ended up in there?
