    Q5 Facebook support, what is your biggest frustration here?
    Q6 A quick jaunt into other platform land. Any thoughts on support from the other platforms (non-Google or FB)?
    Q7 Philosophy time - what should support include? What exactly do we expect from support?

    Q1 What did you all get up to this long weekend?

    Q5 Lets do an AMA (ask me anything) .... though me as in the community and not literally just me. What did we not cover that you want to know about Facebook bidding? Maybe even the Facebook system in general. ASK AWAY!
