For certain types of advertising, I think Facebook's ability to target by demographic must make it significantly more cost-effective (and hence popular) than keyword searches -- products for a particular age range, or relationship status come to mind -- despite the lack of intentionality (i.e., a keyword search is somebody looking for something, but a Facebook user is not).
