We have a new record for lightest gray corporate logos
Sarper Erel, almost 4 years ago (edited almost 4 years ago ) The site doesn't say a word about what it actually is O.o

"Canvas is an immersive and expressive experience on Facebook for businesses to tell their stories and showcase their products."
Duncan Russell, almost 4 years ago
To be fair, that describes its objective, but not necessarily what it does very well.
businesses [...] showcase [...] products
are the only useful words there.
Luca Candela, almost 4 years ago It's not like it's hard to see, it's a new format for native advertisement on Facebook.

It's remarkable how much effort must go into avoiding the word "advertisement" on a product page like this.

tl;dr it's just another ad platform

Tool for making banner ads for their mobile app
Nick Matarese, almost 4 years ago Feels a lot like Snapchat Stories Discover, and I don't think thats a bad thing.
David Darnes, almost 4 years ago
Good comparison.
Marc Nothrop, almost 4 years ago (edited almost 4 years ago ) An interesting comparison -- expressive native ad formats like this could be used for content/brand marketing like Snapchat Stories.

Wow it's so cool!
Spencer Holtaway, almost 4 years ago
Looks cool, but not cool enough for me to look at ads.
Eric R, almost 4 years ago
No idea what this would be used for other than ads. They even list all the brands using it at the bottom.
Nick Matarese, almost 4 years ago (edited almost 4 years ago ) It is for ads. FB makes money by showing ads to users. Canvas seems like a new ad format aimed to be less intrusive than video and more engaging than static photo.

Suspiciously not built in React...
Marc Nothrop, almost 4 years ago Pretty similar in concept to Apple's iAds and Microsoft's native ad proposal from some time ago, but drastically more reach.
