Description:

Facebook is a media, community, and application platform that offers an existing thriving ecosystem, scalable growth, and word-of-mouth marketing. The ability to understand users, their preferences, and networks, helps Web applications to quickly segment and rapidly grow. Of course, no system is perfect, as we will understand the challenges with data, privacy, and the growing conflict as work and personal lives collide online.

Facebook provides targeted advertising unlike we have ever seen before, the ability to provide messages segmented by location, gender, and or preference gives the ability to accurately market effectively.

The recently launched application platform gives the small agile Web team the ability to quickly deploy a widget, scale, and monetize. We will explore what is worked as these mini-applications are launched on top of an existing community.
