+ Who are you targeting? \\ 04.30.08

I’ll admit, I’ve been a big fan of Facebook from day one. However as of late these new additions are starting to piss me off. I don’t have time for zombies, werewolves, or super pokes ok? Whether i’m running late for class or slacking off at my job, I need to know that my time isn’t being wasted on fighting pirates or joining a ninja clan. Don’t do this to me Zuckerberg. Not now.

One feature that I thought would be cool is the addition of buying private ads that would appear on members’ pages when they logged in. In theory for a small investment you can buy ad space on Facebook and your ad would appear on a members page who was interested in your product or service. A pretty cool idea if you’re an aspiring artist, musician, comic, whatever.

I was thinking about investing in this idea to get more people to read this blog and check out the website (Wow, you’re reading this right now; did I ever tell you how much I love you oh loyal reader?), but the problem is every time I log in this ad appears:

I didn’t know my profile gave the indication I was a 16 year old caucasian girl with back fat. Secondly, even if I was how does this ad even remotely make me want to click on it? It says ‘Ew’. I may not be a marketing wiz but I know that doesn’t reel in the hits on your webpage.

Maybe I have it all wrong. Maybe that ad is really legit and I need to recognize.

If that’s the case, I think I need to hit the gym. Thanks Mark!
