But they turned out fine (by that I mean gazzillionaires). Yes, and they have all of their tech from buying tiny innovative companies, like Oingo/Applied Semantics, Youtube and Android. All bought. All IP and money come from those purchases. The rest of the company is a self aggrandizing quasi governmental highly political information stealing privacy destroying spy organization which cares nothing about , say , human rights in China. Its amazing how thin the veneer has to be to fool people. Probably the same thing that allowed the various tyrants of the WW2 era to come to power. Except the people didnt have internet then, we should know better.

Truth is, there is nothing unusual about prices going down. As for FB, WallStr Banksters exagerrated the number of accounts on FB. First, they counted the link thru from other websites. Second, probably half of those who sign up at FB use the account only once, during sign up, to see what is it all about, and never again use the account, but they count as one user anyway. I venture to guess that majority of those who use FB are the mass-mindless-public, displaying narcissism. Productive high income people dont have time for that kind of narcissim, they are busy making money. When I heard on CNBC reporting that kids are badgerring their parents to buy FB last week, I knew we have a generation in trouble.

And I have a good strong 4G connection. I get the impression that it is a backend server issue and not so much the app. IMHO anyway.

There are also some fool talking heads at Fox Business. I don't compare facebook to google, I compare it to Netscape. That was the big tech bubble IPO at the time. Poof! Those millions raised for Netscape are gone somewhere. The shareholders are now so far underwater they can see the titanic.
