That would be my space...

What he did is invent a free login service that sold your info to advertisers...

He did nothing of particular innovation...

Those buyers of Facebook are going to take a bath...

No. Not only did Facebook steal, but My-Space was so far a head of Facebook it's stupid. Facebook was a double steal of what was already happening.

If Facebook went away tomorrow, no one would miss a house payment. Except maybe the morons who bought their stock.

survival of the fittest, facebook was superior to deadspace and kicked the crap out of it

only teenage girls used *******, Zuckerberg, who I admit is a total dbag, turned his "invention" into something we all use

My-space was before Facebook. Friendster was before my-space, and so and so on.

Hell, AOL Online used to pretty much be the same thing. You had a profile and could search for people based on their profile. You had "friends" and could message each other.

Nothing compares...... Facebook is insanely viral worldwide. It can probably be used to replace the emergency broadcast system thats on tv now. Innovation. Face it.

So when the ipo tanks to $2/share how many will buy then?

SamIAm.... Its the truth

so you in essence are clueless.

facebook is a fancy RSS feed that anyone can do. it just hit a wave and people got mad at ******* (which was a LOT more functional but highly annoying in not being able to control my inbox) and ran to the next fad.

no one is running to google+. and no one really reads on facebook that much anymore cause they're too busy posting.

their click-thru rate is abysmal and they're now talking about letting people pay a small amount (dollar or two) to HIGHLIGHT their posts and force them on people who would otherwise not want to see it.

they're about to get more annoying than *******.

if the pet rock was innovation then yes, so is facebook.

Well let's be reasonable here, obviously Facebook/Zuckerberg contributed widely to strong opinions and contentious debates on public forums. :laugh2:

****'s gettin' crazy up in this thread. :)
