Facebook advert

I've never seen Facebook advertise on billboards before, it's a surprising thing for a "new media" company to do. Strange, isn't it? Maybe there's something about the market in Jakarta that makes it worth doing advertising on billboards..

Well, I've done very little the last few days. It's been a fairly nice change. So I'm just going to use this post to pose a few questions:



Well, that's all I can think of. Peace out.

even though I'm not able to read the poster, I would have thought it was an ad for 3 mobile, and that mobile facebook posting is one of the services that they offer? (which is why the facebook logo is there)

exactly. It has nothing to do with Facebook advertising, and everything to do with Three riding on the coattails of Facebook's popularity and success. (Go with us and you can use facebook on your mobile!)

[There are similar paper-based ads all over the place, in magazines, newspapers, etc]
