Facebook的“喜歡”功能變身廣告（紐約時(shí)報(bào)）

??? 許多公司、包括亞馬遜（Amazon）付費(fèi)給Facebook,，希望Facebook用戶在訪問他們的品牌時(shí),，如果通過社交插件點(diǎn)擊了“喜歡”按鈕，或是通過其它某種方式訪問了他們的品牌后,，網(wǎng)頁可以跳出相關(guān)動(dòng)畫廣告,。Facebook用戶在注冊的時(shí)候已經(jīng)同意了篇幅長達(dá)4,000多個(gè)詞的服務(wù)條款，接受廣告也是其中的一條,。目前Facebook增加利潤的壓力越來越大,，而且它還急著要實(shí)現(xiàn)IPO時(shí)的承諾，因此Facebook越來越依賴這種方法以提高的廣告收益,。Facebook表示它并沒有詳細(xì)劃分有多少收入來自此類廣告,。不過Facebook近來在股市的表現(xiàn)非常低迷，股價(jià)已經(jīng)相較發(fā)行價(jià)格暴跌了22個(gè)百分點(diǎn),，因此Facebook很可能更迫切地采用這種廣告來賺錢,。

On Facebook, 'Likes' become ads [THE NEW YORK TIMES]

??? Amazon is one of many companies that pay Facebook to generate these automated ads when a user clicks to "like" their brands or references them in some other way. Facebook users agree to participate in the ads halfway through the site's 4,000-word terms of service, which they consent to when they sign up. With heightened pressure to step up profits and live up to the promise of its gigantic public offering, Facebook is increasingly banking on this approach to generate more ad revenue. The company said it does not break down how much revenue comes from such ads. Its early stock market performance — down 22 percent from its offering price — is likely to increase the urgency.
