"People may now see ads and sponsored stories from Facebook on Zynga.com," said Facebook spokesperson Tucker Bounds. He said that Facebook does not share information about people or advertisers with Zynga, and that Facebook's advertisers do not have any new "targeting criteria."
Asked if Facebook was planning to create a full-fledged online ad network that distributes ads on other sites, Bounds said "we are only showing ads on Zynga right now." Zynga was not immediately available for comment.
Shares of Facebook, the world's No.1 social network, were up 4.4 percent to $33.25 in mid-afternoon trading on Friday.
