    Facebook to go public tomorrow (wed)

    According to Bloomberg and Reuters

    BREAKING: Facebook is said to hire Morgan Stanley to lead planned IPO http://bloomberg.com $FB
    Facebook is expected to submit paperwork to regulators on Wednesday morning for a $5 billion initial public offering and has selected Morgan Stanley and four other bookrunners to handle the mega-IPO, sources close to the deal told IFR.

    I wonder, based on the results tomorrow, will this have any effect on Facebooks rumored plans to double its office space in Dublin.

    This!! If they stop messing with it, reassure people about privacy sharing then no issues with them.


    At the moment, they annoy me with every change they make. Soon it will be as bad as MySpace then they will die.

    There are better networks out there though like Disapora.
    Diaspora (software) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Has the potential to liberate us from companies like Facebook while allowing us to continue social networking.

    Or really, why isn't social network run by communities instead of companies?

    Why can't they just leave the thing, alone. The more they change it the more it annoys me, soon there will be room for new "facebook" a no nonsense keep in touch/share photos/messages without all the facebook ************************e.
