Hogs and Facebook Ads?

There has been lots of buzz lately about advertising and marketing efforts across social networks like Facebook. According to many experts, these networks represent the wave of the future when it comes to reaching younger, segmented audiences that use the Internet to hang out with each other.

So what does the hog pictured here have to do with Facebook and advertising? Check out the recent blog post by Jason on calacanis.com for more about the debate over social network advertising.

Oink,
