This is a great overview. I find it interesting that there is still significant friction with setting up arguably one of FB's most useful ad tools....I also find it interesting that tracking pixels pretty much haven't changed since the late 90s.

JavaScript seems to be the perfect tool to get the scale required to handle these types of interactions.
