Facebook is ready to flex its advertising muscles. On Monday, Facebook’s business director, Dan Rose, addressed attendees of the DLD media conference in Munich, speaking of the success of social games on Facebook from developers like Zynga and opportunities to expand its advertising to its 500 million-plus users.
