That is an interesting comparison. I still wonder generally about the effectiveness of internet ads. I feel like I have just learned to tune them out and have never clicked on one on purpose.
I also wonder if Zuckerberg is in it for the long haul or if he will just take the money and run. He has to know that the long term viability of Facebook is limited.

Well I'm willing to bet they take all of that capital and start to buy up other companies, similar to Microsoft, Google, ebay etc.
I dont think I look at banners either, but then I visit very few websites..
But some items its very successful at promoting though. There is a game company, forget the name, but they recently went public, and they generate tens of millions a month in revenues, and they pay facebook a commission from each sale. They run that farmer game etc. Most of their customers come through facebook.

The company is Zynga and I think their games are actually embedded in Facebook itself. It is not the same as say EA buying ads for Madden 2013.
Really? I thought that it was somehow linked to people's facebook profiles (people asking friends for cows and to join their mob).
Well then I stand corrected.
Well you can sign into your games using facebook, but thats pretty much a facebook cookie that gets tracked. Its like shopping on ebay, and then going to half.com. You can use the same login for them, but the funds are kept seperate. Ebay/half might be a bad choice because ebay owns half, but I hope that helps explain it.
I really think Facebook has surpassed the idea that it is just a fad. I honestly think it has that too big to fail aura about it now. Not with bailouts per se, but I think any and every investor understands that it can be lucrative with the right leadership. I think that it'll eventually find that nitch and i'll probably buy when it jumps into the 20s.
Just keep waiting till the stock drops to $9-$10 bucks or less then pick it up cheap and sell it for a small profit...Remember buy low & sell high and never buy a IPO on a company that neither makes, sells or builds anything.
Like Google.
