Stereotyping is alive and well in data aggregation. Your application for credit could be declined not on the basis of your own finances or credit history, but on the basis of aggregate data — what other people whose likes and dislikes are similar to yours have done. If guitar players or divorcing couples are more likely to renege on their credit-card bills, then the fact that you’ve looked at guitar ads or sent an e-mail to a divorce lawyer might cause a data aggregator to classify you as less credit-worthy.

Had dinner at Four Seasons Beach restaurant just north of Kona.   I really like the organic healthy approach to their meals and the general ambiance that they create at the Four Seasons.  They have a unique salt water pool stock with Rays, fish and the like so you can swim with nature without, swimming with nature.  An odd experience.  The sand at the front is shipped in but the views of the constant surf and sun make for great photos.
