Facebook, which first launched to the public in 2004, has become the defacto standard for social networking and has added music and games and enhanced content features. Google has taken steps to counter Facebook by offering a social networking feature for their Gmail service called Buzz that lets users share media such as videos and photos. Google has indicated that they are considering making the Buzz feature a stand-alone service, Bloomberg reported. – via CelebrityAccess

  1. So what? Ain’t NOBODY on Facebook buying a damn thing! They all left Myspace because they didn’t want to see ads or be sold anything.It’s a ton of meaningless numbers. Everybody on Facebook is there to socialize. If you’re looking to make money,you’d best look elsewhere. This is a big Madoff/Ponzi scheme. If they do have an I.P.O.,it will be for suckers only.Do you see Warren Buffet making an investment? It’s all smoke and mirrors. People hit Google to look for something,mostly with a purchase in mind. Not so with Facebook.When was the last time you clicked on a Facebook ad and made a purchase? I rest my case.
