Saw that the other day, not bad... Finally a market based approach to measuring the value (many) users get from FB and quite refreshing compared to the usual "I know what's best for you" approach.

Edit: I don't use FB, but understand that it can be valuable to many users, just like any other platform or app out there.

I wouldn't read too much into it. If you asked the same question, but in reverse and made it about how much people would pay, it's going to be a very different outcome.

This. People just don't work the way economists think they do.
