The bakery analogy is not quite correct. Facebook is not selling cakes.

Instead, what if the bakery offered floor space to people to set up their own shops, using the bakery's ovens, refrigerators, storage space, and customer lists?

Then, after you set up your successful business, the bakery decides to evict you because they don't like what you're putting on your cakes?

That's more like the Facebook model, according to their prospectus (see my earlier post). Facebook is offering a generic storefront to people and access to Facebook's customer base. Once people establish a successful storefront on Facebook, Facebook is evicting them based on their product content.

Brilliant. A Marketplace model.
