Thanks! The only thing that worried me is that Facebook sees me as someone with "Close friends of Women with a Birthday in 7-30 days" That just sounds sleazy.

  It would be interesting to know how they've built out this ontology. I'm sure they seeded it with something that they acquired from some company that specializes in this sort of thing. I think that's how they got in trouble a few years back because their initial one had subjects like "Nazi", etc., and you could buy ads targeting people interested in Nazis. I'm sure they've since gone through and methodically cleared out those sorts of subjects.

    The "company that specializes in this sort of thing" is called... Facebook. They look at your friends and their listed birthdays to generate an ad category...

  "Might be shopping for birthday presents" doesn't seem sleazy to me
