This looks really cool. I don't use Facebook much, and didn't know they make all this data available. But what prevents Facebook from implementing this functionality themselves?
There is no technical barrier stopping facebook from doing this, however Facebook stands to gain much much more in promoting an ecosystem for companies such as ourselves to exist. They traditionally haven't encroached on this space.

Have we learned nothing from Twitter. FB's ad revenue model is still in its infancy, so I wouldn't assume any part of their ecosystem is safe.
