Valuations of $50B are hard to make up

They are trying like the dickens to data mine as much info as possible to sell, that's the model, like Google.

I think this report may be a bit too gloomy but teens are fickle, so who knows.

Facebook is fine, it just really is a finished company and not much more should be expected. It lost it's chance to get into other areas and they've already been beaten by better and smarter companies. Facebook currency and Facebook search are all but dead in my mind. They are clearly scared of Google+ though given the play they made on Android to create an app that takes it over.

LinkedIn would be so much better if you could play Farmville and Mafia Wars on it. You know, the important elements of social networking.

4chan? Reddit? Somebody's trolling these Jaffray folks. I doubt a kiddie porn site and the home of people who get upset about other folks imaginary friends are going to become mainstream web destinations.

Yup. Instant Graham is to Facebook what Facebook was to MySpace 5 years ago.

Yeah. MySpace vanished in a matter of months, it seemed.

Instagram is definately the more popular site with the young folk. Facebook is pretty old these days...

But even with the integration of the two, more younger people would rather just go directly to instagram and not even bother to share the pictures with Facebook. It's a simpler way of posting for them. And (most of) their parents haven't discovered it yet...

I don't post pictures so Instagram doesn't really appeal to me.

Lots of meme posting too. You may be more into that.

I've posted very few pictures. Maybe one or two of myself. Mostly the kids, wife, Doritos Cool Ranch Tacos and a meme of DeAndre Jordan destroyinh Brandon Knight.

Kids use it mostly for communication, it seems. It's less about the pisture sometimes and more about the back and forth...

This was one of the few times I wasn't arguing. I was just pointing out in regards to the thread subject that Facebook is in trouble that in that case they still control it.

I still wish I knew how much they celebrated when they got $1 billion dollars for creating a way to share photos on the internet.
