These are a lot of really good ideas. Think about how much people like clever and funny TV adds released to Youtube. They upvote them, favourite them, and share them with their friends. (Old Spice, Superbowl ads, those old Rube Goldberg car commercials.)<p>If ads were treated like they were on Youtube - potentially entertaining or thought-provoking bits that people intentionally browse, upvote and share, Facebook would get much less flak for the way they've been trying to monetize their users. It would also promote creativity and thoughtfulness - which is something long term internet users respond to much more than the old blinking text and flash animations strategy.[citation needed]
