This looks cool, though as a non-Facebook user, I'm not sure of the details here. What does the "We don't." header mean?
Hey there, thanks for commenting!

If you don't use Facebook, probably you are not familiar with the Facebook ad manager.

It's a tool for advertisers on Facebook.

For each keyword you want to target, the Facebook™ Ads Manager shows the only 25 interest suggestions, the same that it shows to everybody.

We don't. We show you a lot more so that you can target interests that your competition is not.

Hope this clarifies it!

Hey Hacker News,

I just built this tool around uncovering Facebook advertising interests.

For each keyword you put in, the Facebook™ Ads Manager shows the only 25 interest suggestions, the same that it shows to everybody.

Turns out more interests are just an API call away. If you are a dev, it's pretty simple but I thought to put a UI and some more features into it.

This was a small feature of a product I built almost three years ago and decided to give it new life.

Hope you like it!
