Is Amazon.com spying on me?

This morning I watch three short videos on YouTube featuring ventriloquist Jeff Dunham. Several hours later I added a book to my Amazon.com wishlist and get the resulting 'here's what else you should buy" page. Oddly enough a Jeff Dunham DVD is one of the items suggested to me. Quick looks thorough my browser's history (shown below) Dunham only came up from YouTube and I'd not previously looked at any Dunham related items in Amazon.com. Coincidence? What do you think?

Coincedence? Probably not. But then I'm a bit paranoid about amazon.com to begin with!

oh, crops!

I noticed the same thing just now.
I was going to see how popular Jeff Dunham is on amazon. Then I noticed that they have three REM records across the top. I have never looked up REM online until today on google, and never on amazon.

Thanks to my twitter peeps i am now in the machine.
