Was the FB deal over hyped?

0.6% gain could well turn into massive losses. I think you are seeing the FB users buy. FB users = losers in my view.
I think FB is a joke, a fad that has lasted too long, an easily competed / defeated competitor to something (My Space has come and gone) and all that but I also think this law suit is a shame. A shame that nobody can go into business, build wealth and not have a lawyer trumping up something to take it from them.
Remember what Zuck thought of facebook users ?
“Zuck: Dumb f**ks.”
You can google to find the text of those IM exchanges between him and his friends.
Oh, and there’s the other guys who he was working for, building a similar site. And he strung them along while he really worked on his own site. When they found out he had his own site and the work he was doing for them he... never did... they sued him and accepted what could now be considered a paltry settlement.
Nice guy.
I use FB. Sarah Palin uses it. Rush uses it. Lots of conservatives use it. Free Republic uses it.
