Facebook Adopts New Ad Metrics

In the midst of Facebook’s various mobile and other expansion attempts, the company has also taken a step toward standardizing the “wild world of Web metrics” by switching its engagement rating for applications from daily usage to monthly active user reports, according to AdWeek.

(Currently the site features little to no advertising on cell phones, be it via the company’s dedicated iPhone and WAP sites or its Facebook for BlackBerry application.)
