with google+ already amassing 10 million ppl in BETA mode itself, is this the beginning of the end for facebook's crazy 100 billion valuation? facebook valuation has all the craziness of the internet crap from the late 90s - calculating clicks per page and then assigning a valuation. when they decide to go public the company has a duty to shareholders to NOT misrepresent the number of users it actually has, and I bet it'll be lower than the 750million they're currently leaking. would be very interesting to see if IPO price will be lowered, in the coming months.

I bet this has put an abrupt brake on the FB bubble from blowing up any more. What's amazing is the speed at which this happened. Zuckerberg might yet live to regret not going IPO earlier. The longer he waits for IPO, the lower the price will be.

I agree. I have always disliked Facebook. But I am now seeing more and more people talk about how they have stopped using it. A year ago it was still cool to talk about how you used Facebook to do this or that. Now it is cool to talk about how you don't use Facebook much. This doesn't bode well for that insanely high valuation.

Websites are inanimate; users make it otherwise. I've never created a facebook profile. Can't put my finger on it - there just was something about it that just made me balk...

Or maybe, non-facebook users/g+ adopters amongst us were so ahead of the curve, that we circled it - to tap on its shoulder again... Very Happy

$100 bn valuation is pure, unadulterated, 24-carat bullspit. they will have to lower their IPO price and as someone else on this thread said, more delays will mean even lesser price.

i saw g+ demo and it seems like a product i will use. facebook was always cluttered for my taste. g+ seems to be cultter-free.
