$50bn you numpty.. -
It's a mostly text based website which accounts for 25% of the traffic in the US. If they can't make enormous money out of that there's something wrong with them.Comment

Facebook is not worth $5 billion. I think this is an exaggeration and overstatement. It is quite possible that Facebook is worth more than $1 million.Send me an email: [email protected]Comment

Facebook has reportedly raised funds from Goldman Sachs and a Russian investor in a deal valuing the social networking site at $50bn (£32.3bn).
The New York Times said that Goldman was investing $450m in Facebook, and Digital Sky Technologies another $50m.
The paper, citing unnamed sources, said the terms of the deal implied a value for Facebook of just over $50bn.
Goldman's involvement could also raise speculation that Facebook might float on the stock market.
The Financial Times also reported that Goldman was investing $375m in Facebook, with Digital Sky putting in $75m.
Cashing in
A Facebook spokeswoman told the BBC that the company was not commenting on the New York Times story. Goldman also declined to comment.
If valued at $50bn, Facebook is worth more than eBay and Time Warner.
The fresh investment is expected to be used to fund development of new products and possibly make acquisitions, the New York Times said.
It may also enable Facebook employees and early investors to cash in some of their stakes.
The paper said the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) was looking at the growth in the private market for trading in companies like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.
Regulators are concerned that, with this private market booming, companies are able to circumvent public disclosure requirements.
Further scrutiny by the SEC could help push Facebook towards a public listing, although the company's founder, Mark Zuckerberg, has denied there are plans for a flotation.

How do you make money from face book?
remeber a huge amount of facebook users only log in using a phone app, so even if you put adverts on the site, most people will not see them.
i do not see how you can possibly make a lot of cash from the site.
its a bit like owning a park. it will get lots of people using the park, but you cannot make money with it.Comment

yes
i bet if a few years ago i said by 2011 myspace will be a site people do not bother with, most of you would have said i was crazy.
just like a few years asho if i said yahoo will not be the main search enjine. yet google took over.
we alwso must remeber how people will use the net.
more and more will use there tv for the net. ie, film clips from youtube direct to your tv.
more people now use mobile phone aps to conect to the net.
google has other things under its belt.
ebay makes money as its a money business.
facebook seems more value to those setting up games and aps for it, and getting people to buy inside there game.
so how can facebook make any huge cash? if you fill the site with adverts, it will simply anoy people.Comment
-
still, its not my cash.
i would not invest $1 into the site.
But lots of greedy rich people will.
I suspect they would make more cash giving it to mr madeoff.Comment

I think take google divide in half. Thats without knowing anything about click ratios on advertisements. but I'm pretty sure facebook is going to surpass google in traffic levels by us usersNetwork Of Adult Blogs With Hardlink Rentals AvailableComment

well if you think like a guy that has been in the internet for ages you are right it doesn't ad up ... maybe...
but have they have made it so fucking easy to put up an ad on their site (unlike adsense) that every fucking one that has a computer is using it. i have seen tons of ads from panama and trust me panama businesses are in 1989 when it comes to internet yet they paid their 50 bucks to get shitload of views and clicks i tried it for a local page once and i did get results. word to mouth 1 country 200k ads times 50 bucks minimum and then multiply it by every other country and add the fact they are larger than panama and that is a shitload of money per day...
mainstream bro is nothing like adult. and also USA is not the only revenue stream anymore...Last edited by inabon; 01-04-2011, 05:25 AM.Whoever dies with most toys wins.Comment

Facebook has countless incoming links. Free shoutouts all day long on TV and Radio. 2nd most used site online right now. Worst case scenario it will still be in the top 100 and still worth a few billion. That site is branded hard on the world population like myspace (alexa rank of 46).

When you remove ALL the fake accounts on FB it is not worth that much, not many people logon to that place anymore. I am old enough to remember how it did go with myspace, it eventually died and that will happen to FB as well.
So its not really worth any billions at all, they might have earned billions selling your's and mine information to the advertisers.
These days every kid / young adults are on twitter they have more or less left FB, the people left are the old farts that stays in one place as soon as they get settled.
I honestly log on to fb one a week or less.

FB Stock is slowly going up .. I will predict it to peak at $50 in the next 18 months at least once
opened at $38 , quickly sank to $18 now is trading at around $28
so looking at those numbers it is very easy to make this prediction
buy FB now and be happy , sell at $45 - $50 . easy money

the long time mailer speaks the truth, if you only look at the value of the email list. which is a myopic view.
i've been a FB skeptic from the moment they went public (and before), but credit where it's due - they've really 'gotten it' regarding mobile ads and their revenue from that has been explodingArguing whether the Democratic or Republican party is better is like debating which steaming pile of shit is slightly less stinky.Comment

This is the worlds best organized email list, you can almost categorize it down to what you ate, when you ate it, if it was alone, eating home or out, area you are within or your dreams/likes and dislikes. This e-mail list will most likely know before you do if your GF is cheating on you. Not to mention that every time you are bored you will keep staring at it hoping it will change it.
