SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Armed with a bevy of new managers from top Silicon Valley firms and explosively growing revenues, business networking site LinkedIn Corp. is gearing up to become one of the first big post-dotcom Internet IPOs.

LinkedIn, a buttoned-down sort of MySpace or Facebook for the corporate professional set, has seen its membership double to nearly 12 million users over the past nine months, Chief Executive Dan Nye told Reuters in an interview. It makes money from subscriptions, advertising and fees from job recruiters.

Darn! That may have been a good one for 2007. Are there any other Web 2.0 IPO candidates? I have heard Xing or Admob.
 
I wouldn't bother putting any money in the smaller social networking/ web2.0 sites should any of them go public. I predict a lot of these smaller web 2.0 companies will be forgotten in a few years.
 
I really hope it goes public

I missed out on the 90's boom and this would be a very easy way fro retail investors to make a ton of money provided you get in EARLY

I imagine facebook being priced at 80 like goog and then surging to 150+ that day like bidu

then it goes up another 30% the next day

within a few motnhs it is tradign a 300+ and DOES NOT split EVER.

Then there is a correction..maybe 30 points or so...volume contracts ..stupid pansies sell out. I come in and buy more at 270

then B00000000M massive traffic spike in facebook . All sudden facebook market share rises to 20% OMG...it is overtaking the myspace goliath!

Macebook gaps up 50 points and ends the day up 70 points.

It continues to rally for the next four months to 540 a share.

Or better yet, you double your portfolio in VISA just in time to rake it all into the Facebook IPO! :D

The blogs are filled with speculation around a possible IPO for FACEBOOK? Anyone have any thoughts? Would you invest?

Facebook can't be that good; just ask: how many EliteTraders are members? they don't even have an EliteTrader group for crying out loud!

I would rather invest in the EliteTrader IPO.
