Facebook’s advertising network is already a colossal business — it helped the social network bring in over $5 billion in revenue in its most recent quarter alone — but it is about to take a step towards become the internet’s advertising exchange after announcing that it will start showing ads to non-users across the web..
Previously, if you were either not a Facebook user or not logged into the social network, then Facebook advertising on third party websites or mobile apps — powered by the Facebook Audience Network — would not be visible to you. That all changes today.

Well, it is not really surprising...extending the selling of information to non users is logical...if somewhat 'underhand'. Be interesting to see what Face book users (I am not one...;)) think of this and whether it causes them to reappraise their membership?
