Facebook Gets in the Holiday Gifting Spirit

Just earlier this week we reviewed fbFund competitor Real Gifts, which combines virtual gifting with giving someone a gift in the real world. I thought that combining some of Real Gifts’ elements would be a good idea, for other apps or native Facebook apps. But this Thanksgiving, Facebook is taking advantage of the holiday’s notorious shopping reputation to earn a little revenue for itself. A number of participating retailers are sponsoring virtual gifts that Facebook users can share with each other.
