Facebook 一开始就是靠广告存活下来的:
“ But how did Facebook support its early operations and pay for these wildly expensive servers? Banner ads! Yes, banner ads. As Zuck mentioned in the interview, it was (co-founder) Eduardo Saverin ’ s job early on to find ads for Facebook to use, as AdSense had just been released, for example.
TheFacebook.com had a network of banner ads, but as Zuck implies, they really weren ’ t making any money. Just enough to pay for those $85 servers.”
