Instagram is Listening

My son was talking about what β€œpΓ₯lΓ¦g” (open-sandwich) topping to have for lunch.

Fifteen minutes later he called me to show me an ad for salami that popped up on his feed.

Last Saturday week I was at a party chatting with another guest about Paul Auster and a book he’d written. We connected on Facebook and she sent me a link to a NYT interview with Auster that β€œjust popped up” in her feed the day after.

It happens constantly.
