“I am on FB quite a bit and I dont see how they make money by adds. I barely notice them and would not think of clicking on one.”
Most users rarely click through and advertisers are paying for a venue that will not ever work effectively until they can virtually read your mind. That’s what the ultimate goal has become because then users will click thru on ads because it is what you were thinking.
FB eventually wants to catalog every detail of your life and psyche that eventually will marketeers an ability to analyze your mind and mood. Also they want us lemmings to believe that having one’s mind read by marketeers and government is hip. I personally want no part of it.
I think it was Yahoo who told me, when I clicked "No" on their "Advertising? Yes/No" window that if said "Yes" I would get ads oriented towards my interests; if I said "No", I would still get ads, although they would just be of a "one size fits all" variety. ("You VILL get ads, Ja?")
