the exact same thing: "This is all going to collapse soon."

After almost two years of staring at six figure weekly revenue values on the
analytics and tracking applications I've built (I obviously am not making this
much), I begin to question my inherent concerns on FB's long game.

From a quantitative perspective I cannot fault them _right now_ but from a
qualitative perspective...something is rotten in Denmark.

Facebook is not the platform we need, it's the one we deserve right now ;-)

i sent a link over their newly acquired IM service... and now all my ads are
for the company owning that link.

for one side I'm impressed at their speed in incorporating that new window
into my privacy....or maybe the selling price was so high because that was
already a feature? anyway, on the other hand, I'm unimpressed by either their
inventory of ads or ability to classify the content they know i know.

if they showed me things relevant to that link it would be interesting. they
just flooded me with ads for something i might even own already. its like the
cheap ad networks on desktop. see one item at amazon, now all sites in the
world will show you that item. they just spent billions to race the mobile ads
to the bottom from the get go.

Isn't it more likely that the page you visited to get the link had a Facebook
"like" button on it that tracked your potential interest at that point?
