It’s a Chair ? Is it a doorbell or its an plane ?  No actually its FACEBOOK. In its first ever ad, facebook has compared themselves with the Chairs. Check out the official advertisement released by the Facebook and an announcement that FB has reached 1 billion people in World. Facebook is compared to chairs, doorbells, bridges and airplanes in their official 90 Seconds ad. ”Facebook is like things that people use to get together so they can open up and connect”.

“Anyone can sit on a chair, and if the chair’s large enough they can sit down together and tell jokes and make up stories or just listen,” a female voice says over footage of people sitting down.

“Chairs are for people, and that is why chairs are like Facebook.”

Zuckerberg wrote a blog post: For the first time in our history, we’ve made a brand video to express what our place is on this earth and believe that the need to open up and connect is what makes us human. It’s what brings us together. It’s what brings meaning to our lives.

The official ad will roll out in 13 countries including America, the UK, Japan and Indonesia, but not Australia.
