I think I jumped the shark. I put up a banner ad across my posts, which means if you get sick of looking at my boring pictures you can instead stare at the most popular woman in Korea.
Kushibo it changes on each page, as do the text ads. On the previous post it comes up as AsiaRooms. Unfortunately, for seemingly all the Korea pages it comes up as this Korea Cupid. I wish there was a way to pick and choose, because I'd rather not have her up there.
I think I wasn't exactly clear in my earlier query. I do see that the ads change, but among them were several that were Korea-specific. I wonder what you did so that they would know to do that. Maybe a bot reviews the content, but AdSense doesn't use bots, I don't think.

That's possible, but I'm not so sure that's how it would work. I'm in Hawaii, but I've been seeing Korea-related ads, so i don't think it's based on the IP of the blog viewer.
I suppose it's possible to base it on the IP of the blog owner, but I'm not sure how AdSense would conclude I'm in Hawaii: my blog's time stamp is Korea and I originally signed up for AdSense in Korea.
Brian is probably getting a better ad deal than I am, owing to him having more traffic, and they probably just fine-tune those things better at that level. But after finals I will go try to tweak it and see if there's some way to indicate that "Korea" is somehow related to my blog.

How'd you get the Korean Air ad? I tried to get AdSense to give me Korea-specific ads, but I can't tweak it at all.
Anyway, that modest one-line ad earns me all the coffee I need when writing my blog.

Are you using AdSense or something else?
It's Adsense. I have no idea how that works. I assumed it was bots.
Hmm... you get several times more hits than I do, so maybe they simply employ a better overall package for you than for me.
I should look into this more. I'd just like to get some Korea-related ads, is all.
Sell-out!
kushibo,
The ads are probably based on the location of your ip address.
