facebook will be forgotten in years to come, the MSFT investment was all hype, facebook is worth nothing more than maybe $500 million at most......it was never worth $15 billion....

Facebook should go public. its stock would probably double in first day of trading after the open, the quadruple its IPO price.

Quote from stock_trad3r:

Facebook is worth between $30-45 billion, which is reasonable given its huge growth and marketshre and traffic. Facebook can be treated as a full fledged media company like Fox, CNN, CBS, Yahoo, or MSNBC.

What a dumbass statement.

Quote from CasperCRF:

Can some one explain how they come up with Facebook being worth $15 billion when it only made $150 million last year?

"A Microsoft investment has valued the company at $15 billion. "

"Even though Facebook is seen as the embodiment of Web 2.0, it has the quintessential Web 1.0 problem: No one has figured out how to make real money off it. Facebook pulled in revenues of just $150 million in 2007. "

Microsoft loves to throw shareholder money in the crapper.
