Default Facebook to go public possibly by Wednesday

So...would you get some shares of it? There are always those people that are like...Wish I got in on yahoo, amazon, apple, etc on day one.

Think it's worth it?

Yes. No brainer.

FB isn't just a "social network", it's the most powerful marketing tool in the world.

FB should have gone public a year or two ago... I honestly feel like with all they've done to piss off their customers in the last year or two that people will be happy to leave them once the next big thing comes along. I wouldn't buy them.

Am I the only one that thinks that facebook won't be quite the social trend in three years as it is now?

Who is going to take them down? They are innovative, not like myspace and social networks before them. I use to be a facebook hater too.

I have no idea.

I deleted my facebook account 6 months ago. Just seems pretty stagnant.
