Hmmmm... Interesting but, what do they have planned for the future??? IMO if u can't see expected expansion/growth in the company then it's a no-go. Maybe it's because I don't have FB but to me, aren't they just a social media website? What more can they add that hasn't been there in the past few years?

Facebook has a huge market share display advertising but there are some issues. They can possibly expand into China and some other things: http://www.marketingweek.co.uk/disci...033765.article

facebook will be done 3 years from now...theyre just trying to get some last minute money for something else...think about it like this- how many people tell themselves each day that they wanna close their facebook or that they hate the bs on facebook....another website will come out where they'll have a cool slogan or saying and everyone will hop on that bandwagon.

Exactly what I was saying. You gotta be able to look at the future, and I really don't see a big future for FB...

Of course I could be wrong. But that's just my 0.02

FB has no future....mark zuckerberg or whatever his name is will come out with something else. Maybe it wont even be mark but someone else.

FB is just a phase it won't last probably the dumbest thing you could invest in UNLESS your trying to flip it for quick $$ but for long term hell no.
