Facebook to Sell Video Ads
http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702304403804579263371125671670?mod=WSJ_hpp_LEFTTopStories
Facebook to Sell Video Ads
Facebook Inc. FB +1.08% will begin selling video advertisements later this week, according to people familiar with the matter.
The ads, which will play automatically in users' news feeds may help Facebook capture a share of the $66.4 billion advertisers are expected to spend on U.S. television this year.
Facebook plans to make the announcement on Tuesday and the ads will begin on Thursday on users' feeds both on the Web and on smartphones, the people familiar with the matter said.
One of the first ads will be a short teaser—made specifically for Facebook—for the upcoming Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. LGF +0.88% film "Divergent." It isn't known how many other companies will offer ads in the early days.
The ads will play automatically in users' feeds, the people familiar with the matter said, regardless of whether users click on them.
How long they will be is unknown. In August, The Wall Street Journal reported Facebook planned to offer ads of up to 15 seconds on both smartphones and the Web.
Many advertisers had hoped Facebook would begin selling ads in time for the holiday shopping season but Facebook delayed a launch fearing ads could annoy users.
Some advertisers produced videos early in the year, anticipating a summer rollout, and were frustrated when Facebook pushed back the launch. Other advertisers worried ads might alienate users.
Facebook founder and Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg took a personal interest in the video ads and delayed their introduction in part because of engineering problems that made them slow to load. In August, the Journal reported Facebook software engineers improved the back-end technology to speed up ads.
Last week, some Facebook users saw videos playing automatically in news feed as Facebook began to test the technology.
It isn't clear how much Facebook will charge advertisers but it is likely to be expensive. Executives told The Wall Street Journal in August Facebook planned to charge $2 million a day to let advertisers reach the full Facebook audience of adults aged 18 to 54.
"We expect video to be more expensive," said Dan Slagen, senior vice president of marketing for Nanigans, a digital-marketing software company. "But we're going to see advertisers willing to pay," he said on Monday.
The delayed rollout could prove profitable for Facebook because this time of year advertisers can have excess money to spend. Traditionally, Facebook hasn't been a go-to place for that money and video ads will make it a more attractive destination, advertising industry experts said.

Who is posting from DSNY,....which Moniker...how do You come to This conclusion ???
Wow, You picked The News from German web page.
1,5 hours ago
Asked Steve to clarifie some things which are discussed regarding Quality on this board so thereafter I think a lot is much clearer.
Below Steve´s reply:
"The base quality is really high - 960 pixels wide, up to 32 frames per second. As a comparision, Youtube is usually somewhere between 320 and 640 and HD is 720.
To get the highest quality, you need enough bandwidth, enough CPU and a short latency. If those aren't available, it will degrade the performance by going to lower quality, lower pixel resolution and a lower frame rate.
We seem to have the most problems in certain markets and Germany seems to be one of them. In this case, the problem is latency and can be fixed by hosting the video in Europe rather than in Vancouver. This will happen automatically when we start using the cloud instead of our servers in Vancouver.
We're also going to be putting up demos in the next couple days where you can manually select the quality to see if our autodetection is being too conservative.
The videos on the site are also not the latest quality. The newest would be the Star Trek one, but even that is pretty old. We'll be updating prior to launch.
We also expect to continue to improve quality on slower machines subsequent to launch.
First option could ne short covering.
second option could ne that a find finished bis buxing activity..usually when they finish buying at The end they try to get pps above some importsnt chart resistance so that momentum trader come in and jump on Board to drive pps further More...immediately The funds Position is in plus
I mean I heard This never at analyst conferences nor at any interview Steve die.
Yes, no glitches or bumps, but high Resolution, I doubt .....anyway great job up to know...now get it life into the market
Somewhen I read this on this board...never heard or read from DSNY in an official Statement.
If so perfect......if not we will see....
WE should go back into English language, we are on US board....
No can`t recognice an improvement up to now.
Sehe keine Verbesserung zu der Version von vor 6 Wochen.
Still expect an upgrade before Launch on 28th, hoping for an update on this coming Weekend.....we will see....at present it is not youtoube Quality, and youtoube Quality is what Steve said is goal.
Don`t trust in Steve`s timelines....learning from the past 5 years...but trust into his tech capabilities.
If Quality is better than youtoube it will be the big bang.
At present we can enjoy the next institutions comming under pressure and have to buy......time is running also for the big ones.
For me it looks like Clipstream Survey and Clipstream adsare already running as on their Website it is not mentioned comming soon on those two products....maybe they just forgot this comment for clipstream ads ?!?

If we Close above $1 and stay there the Chart says we closed a double bottom at 60s, or W Formation ....this would be bullish.
Around 85 or 90s ...nothing happend.
In General Chart reading in penny stocks is doubtful....in my opinion.
Okay, and taken out....volume is increasing, Looks like someone big is buying into dsny

In regards to anydaynow I think he is a yoo investor/supporter whatever, which got with G2 "a wake up call" as G2 will make Yoo`s technology for the ad space obsolete.
They had a fairly nice quarter in terms of revenue increase which I think is comming from ad agencies.
With G2 this business model might die.
Future will tell, DSNY now need to prove that G2 works and that they might really disrupt the ad space and transcoding.
Is this in place we will see pps moving up heavily.
Here we go

That´s exactly what I wanted to say, no need to sell for German shareholders and also no big unusual volume in Frankfurt over past couple of Months.
I believe it is a Fund which might need money at year end, and for other funds which are interested to invest in DSNY I believe they will start purchasing in week 2 2013.
That`s simply stockmarket which is not alway rational and sometimes for whatever reasons not right.
It is simply true that all OTC Bulletin board shares get delistet in Frankfurt, but we easily are able to sell/buy via OTC market from Germany.......no need to sell except some weak hands.
I keep them strong, future is bright for DSNY
