Facebook Buying a Drone Company Will Benefit Brands

Keeping up with social media is something Christy Ferer loves to do. It was recently reported that Facebook is considering buying a drone company in order to bring Internet access to people all over the world who don’t already have it. Facebook is looking to spend $60 million on Titan Aerospace, which makes huge unmanned aerial vehicles. Zuckerburg said in an interview with CNN last year that Facebook had a “rough plan for what we think we’re going to need to do” in order to bring 5 billion more people online.
