REBEL FACEBOOK USERS FLOG ADS IN THEIR OWN PROFILE PAGES
Facebook users have either ignored or defied the social networking site’s rule against advertisements on profile pages, according to the New York Times.
The paper said that more than 1500 Facebook users have begun placing advertisements on their own profile pages.
The ‘culprit’ as such is Montreal-based company Weblo, an advertising network that’s sells ads on blogs and social network profile pages.
The New York Times said that last week Facebook was “forced to wind back its sown Beacon product that transmitted information about users’ purchases.”
The wind back was a result of customer backlash.
