Last month, Microsoft bought a tiny slice — 1.6 percent — of the social networking site Facebook for $240 million.

If you buy Microsoft’s valuation, that makes the Web site worth $15 billion. One Internet analyst has proclaimed that the site, a kind of interactive yearbook favored by young professionals, is worth $100 billion.

That's a lot of cash for a website. Facebook does get a lot of hits though so I wouldn't doubt it. I just hope Microsoft doesn't decide to Microsoft-ify it... if you know what I mean.
