Macro Bonfire: Facebook's Advertising Model . . . Uh-Oh.

Facebook's Advertising Model . . . Uh-Oh.

CNBC's Julia Boorstin reveals that Facebook's numbers are "pretty staggering."

They sure are.

"Ad revenue grew 69 percent to over $3 billion last year, less than half of the 145% growth the company's ad revenue saw between 2009 and 2010. Now the company has to face the fact that more people are using Facebook on their mobile devices where the company still does not serve ads."
