    Facebook (FB +3.1%) is rallying again today after Baird's Colin Sebastian provides a favorable take on the company's mobile ad network plans.

    "Survey says...!?" (80-85% of FB users don't click on adds.) It might not matter how well they know their user population.

    I agree as well as the ability to monetize that user base whenever they choose.

    the factors that could make FB profitable are the same factors that have begun to drive their userbase away.
