Simeon Spearman on 13 Jun 12One thing the study also reinforces is just how much advertisers are betting on Facebook: according to comScore's analysis, more than 15 percent of all U.S. online display ads were "socially enabled," meaning they contained a message asking viewers to "like" or follow the brand or the campaign on Facebook. That's almost double the number of ads that contained those kinds of messages in November of last year, the report said. That kind of bet is what drove Salesforce to spend close to a billion dollars to buy Buddy Media, which specializes in managing Facebook pages and social campaigns.
