<p>Don&#8217;t lie.</p>
<p>Anywheres&#8230; here&#8217;s the situation. I am now on day two of picking apart Facebook Ads, between pauses on a couple of very important projects. I&#8217;m not quite ready to share all my thoughts on it in a coherent way, and when I do, I&#8217;d like to be different. So, here are a few links to some other people talking about Facebook Ads, from articles I&#8217;ve read by people I respect. </p>
<p>It all started when <strong>Rodney Rumford</strong> made me really jealous with this early Facebook coverage once again. He was even <a href="http://facereviews.com/2007/11/07/facebook-advertising-plan/">quoted in an article about the Facebook Ads</a> announcement, along with two other forward thinking individuals whose names you might now. Of course, that&#8217;s what his site is all about, Facebook coverage from a Facebook Apps and Developer perspective. </p>
<p>His was also the first Business I became a &#8220;fan&#8221; of in Facebook, following a quick read of his <a href="http://facereviews.com/2007/11/07/facebook-pages-a-first-look/">Facebook Pages coverage</a>.</p>
<p>Next, have <strong>Jim Hedger</strong>&#8216;s post about it as a <a href="http://www.metamend.com/blog/2007/11/07/facebook-unveils-3-unique-ad-systems/">Three Part Ad System</a>. I found this article last, via Sphinn, and it goes over FB Beacons, FB Pages, and FB Social Ads. </p>
<p>Before that, I wandered across <strong>Jeff Pulver</strong>&#8216;s article in my news over at Facebook. It looks like there&#8217;s a similar article on his site, and gives direct coverage of <a href="http://pulverblog.pulver.com/archives/007635.html">Zuckerberg&#8217;s appearance at the Foursquare conference</a> where Facebook Ads was one of the topics discussed.</p>
<p>I would say that <strong>Jeremiah Owyang</strong> is providing the most in-depth coverage. </p>
<p>On his site, there&#8217;s a <a href="http://www.web-strategist.com/blog/2007/11/06/more-color-on-the-facebook-announcement/">video conversation between him and Robert Scoble</a>. In an earlier post he goes <a href="http://www.web-strategist.com/blog/2007/11/06/myspace-and-facebook-launch-new-advertising-products-why-hyper-targeting-social-ads-and-rise-of-the-fan-sumerâ€-matter-to-brands/">beyond the Facebook news</a>, into fansumerism and in a later post wraps with his testing of <a href="http://www.web-strategist.com/blog/2007/11/07/testing-facebook-pages-and-socialads/">Social Ads and Facebook pages</a>. </p>
<p>Remind me to ask him when he sleeps&#8230;</p>
<p>See the last post for a link to his Facebook page. I found it interesting that he picked the variety of Business page that is for Celebrities or Public Figures. That or the Writer/Artist designation is the one I&#8217;d choose, unless/until Facebook changes the unfriendly wording of the link to becoming a fan, which is &#8220;Add a Product&#8221;. </p>
<p>Ew. Why can&#8217;t it say &#8220;Join Fan Base&#8221;? </p>
<p>What does Jeremiah&#8217;s page say? Well, that&#8217;d be giving it away, now wouldn&#8217;t it?</p>
<p>The next article I saw is built for those of us who an informative but brief executive overview, or rolling updates that include links to things like <a href="http://webcommunityforum.com/2007/11/complete-guide-to-creating-facebook-pages/">a step by step guide to creating your Facebook Business page</a>. <strong>The Web Community Forum</strong> gives us the first step of <a href="http://webcommunityforum.com/2007/11/step-one-for-businesses-in-facebook-creating-a-page-are-you-a-fan/">how to create a Facebook page</a> for our businesses, wherein Jason Preston asks us three important questions that we should consider before making the page.</p>
<p>I saw some other good stuff about Facebook, but you can pick most of them up in <a href="http://www.techmeme.com/071106/p78#a071106p78">Techmeme</a>.</p>
<p>Go on, read them all. It&#8217;s Friday. We&#8217;ll call it &#8220;research&#8221;.

Half of them were for knowing who they were. Rock on Jim&#8230;.</p>
<p>But I didn&#8217;t even discover that gem until half way into this ISEDB article, &#8220;<strong>Video Raised the Internet Bar</strong>&#8220;, which is also thus far the cleverest play on the song title &#8220;Video Killed the Radio Star&#8221; as it relates to the web. Getting back to the article &#8211; it&#8217;s about an accidental stumble Jim and some golf buddies made into Google video to find video content that had good enough sound quality to fill a Led Zeppelin craving (I know. But I&#8217;d already awarded ALL the points). </p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a quote. </p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Sufferin&#8217; succotash dude! Hold your horses or even better, go slow-cook them. If it was that easy, I would just be able to type &#8220;led zeppelin&#8221; into Google like this andâ€¦ HOLY ****! Check this out guysâ€¦&#8221;</p>
<p>Inadvertently I stumbled upon Google Video. Pete&#8217;s Led Zeppelin craving was instantly assuaged by a live 1979 performance of &#8220;Rain Song&#8221; and I was about to experience one of the most interesting innovations seen online in months.</p>
<p>While the Zeppelin footage was old and grainy, the sound was master quality. Next, we moved to the early &#8217;80&#8242;s looking for anything by The Clash. We were rewarded with a live concert version of the piece Rolling Stone Magazine called the most influential song of its decade, London Calling.Again, because the recording is almost twenty-six years ago, the video quality is rather low but the sound quality is excellent. Two successful searches lead to us</p></blockquote>
<p>Now, <a href="http://www.isedb.com/db/articles/1520/">you have to go read this article</a>. It&#8217;ll be fun and nostalgic, I promise.
