What Might Amazon & Facebook’s Marriage Look Like?

Yesterday I talked about how Facebook and Amazon have started dating with a little gimmick related to figuring out what to buy your friends for their birthday.  This morning another thought occurred to me.  How much do you think Amazon would pay Facebook to integrate a link to Facebook in to every fan page that depicts a product that they sell and to create a new page for those things that they don’t.  It would essentially turn Facebook in to a social front-end for Amazon.  I’ll bet it’d erase any concerns that Facebook can monetize with all the efficiency of AdWords.
