I don't think I've ever tweaked Robert Scoble before, but I can't help but protest the tone of this musing on Facebook: "Imagine if advertisers could 'buy people'." I realize that's yanked out of context... but imagine a world where we can all still make money without imagining shit like that. I mean, I may be an advertiser, but I'm a people, too.
But in all seriousness, better contextual ads isn't really about buying people. It wouldn't be hard to implement. Unfortunately, Robert, you probably just gave someone an even more evil idea. Pay-Per-Friend will no doubt be hot on the heels of Pay-Per-Post. Pay-For-Cat and Pay-for-Firstborn might not be far behind.
And don't even get me started about the part where he name-drops that Jeremy Allaire, Stewart Alsop, and Marc Andreeson are on his Facebook contact list. Constantly having to prove yourself: this is life on the A-List?
