Here we go! As soon as July, Facebook has been reported to start rolling out 15 second auto play ads for your wonderful enjoyment. American Express, Unilever, Ford, Coca-Cola and Diageo are supposed to be part of this test.
I am SO EXCITED FOR THIS! Aren’t you? There is nothing more I want to see, than ads for stuff I don’t care about at all, auto playing muted, while I browse what my friends ate, complaints about their lives and pictures of their children! 😀
Also Faceybook, 15 seconds is not the standard format. That means companies are going to have to edit and cut out from 30 second clips they already have.. OR spend more money making all new commercials. smart move.
How long before the Faceybook paid ad-free version actually comes out at this rate? 🙂

Amanda, what is this Facebook you speak about...? Haha. Good thing I got rid of my account a couple years back.
Oooooh! Also on mobile? The fun of burning through my limited data plan because of video spots!

Can I say how much I hate this?
I thoroughly enjoyed reading the post ..."Faceybook" is so you and your sarcasm is razor sharp, my friend! :)
My husband just reminded me that there are no ads on the phone or in person. That led me to imagine a scenario ...
Bob and Peter run into each other on the street.
Bob: Hey, Peter! Long time no see.
Peter: You may start this conversation in ten seconds...(launches into a Tampax Commercial as the countdown continues.)
Bob: Ah, riiiight. I'll just be going now.
I about fell out of my chair when I read this because I was laughing so hard:
There is nothing more I want to see, than ads for stuff I don't care about at all, auto playing muted, while I browse what my friends ate, complaints about their lives and pictures of their children! :D
There couldn't be a more accurate description of what Facebook is. So funny!
